BMW Electric Boat

Very cool, but not my cup of tea, at any price--why would you want to be indoors?

I assume the glass is to reduce wind resistance and thus increase range, even with the extra weight. But maybe it's also a market segmentation thing, and certain people prefer to be indoors on their boat?

One funny thing--at speed, these would be OK in a no wake zone...at least on paper...at least for now

Re: No wake zone. Nope, the regs now say the slowest speed possible to maintain control of your boat. No reference to making a wake.
