Duration: The ferry returns to Viaduct Harbour Marina after 40 minutes, completing the first-in-the-world electric hydrofoiling tourism experience.

Fabulous Trip

This opportunity to experience this new technology is not to be missed! Very informative & very professional team. Such a comfortable & 'amazingly quiet' boat trip shows the absolute potential for this type of technology for our future Ferry & pleasure boat industry. A 'Must Do' for locals as well as tourists.

A novel and interesting experience

I'm an engineer, I love all things novel, and futuristic and this fit the bill perfectly. The crew were knowledgeable talking about the craft, how it came to be, and future plans.. It's certainly a different experience to the usual ferries

Let’s Fly ( just above the water )

Wow ! A must-do experience that combines electric technology and 21st Century boat design. Exceptional knowledge of the craft by the skipper and co pilot. Safety briefing before departure, take your seats and enjoy ! NZ boat building and innovation . A very unique window into the future of water travel.

Great Experience

We had the most amazing time on the hydrofoil boat experience yesterday! The capability of the boat was truly incredible to experience, smooth, powerful, and unlike anything we’ve done before. What really made the trip though were the two crew members. They were genuinely lovely, knowledgeable, and made us feel completely at ease the entire time. A unique, memorable adventure that we’d highly recommend to anyone, we’re still talking about it!
