The Candela Seven
The Candela Seven: A Hydrofoil Watercraft
Flying above the waves
“Flying above the waves” is exactly what driving the Candela Seven electric craft feels like! When you travel on a hydrofoil watercraft, you quite literally experience the double thrill of hydroplaning and the sensation of flying, which is due to the fitted‑in hydrofoil system. When the Candela Seven reaches a certain speed, the watercraft automatically takes off to a height of half a meter above the water! All of this while ensuring a completely silent and incredibly smooth ride. There’s no slamming or seasickness involved.
With a bold combination of technology, ergonomics and distinct comfort, the Candela Seven offers a unique at‑one‑with‑nature experience. The watercraft boasts a completely silent motor, instant acceleration, wind‑flow, hydroplaning and that sensation of flying — delivering a special feeling of harmony with the natural world.

An Ultra-Lightweight Hull
The hull is completely crafted from carbon fiber, combining all the benefits of this material, including minimum weight, increased strength, and corrosion‑resistance. The stern flat design enhances the boat’s stability while floating and enables the hydrofoil feature.

![Control System]()
Control System
The Candela Seven’s control system is developed using avionics.
While “flying”, the control system measures the boat’s lift above the water using altitude sensors located in its bow with the test frequency of 100 times per second! The system also handles the hydrofoil’s angle of attack, to maintain the optimum position on the water’s surface.

![Navigation System]()
Navigation System
The boat is fitted with a built‑in 12″ touchscreen which displays important data relating to the boat’s space position, speed and energy consumption. Above basic features, the screen allows the captain to control the navigation lights and bilge pumps without leaving the steering wheel. There is also a full set of navigation maps available to view.
