High Points

 This electric-powered boat provides enough speed and range to deliver a nice day on the water.

 Lightweight, carbon-fiber construction

aids performance and looks great.

 Electronic monitoring system allays

range anxiety.

Low Points

 Equivalent internal-combustionpowered runabout would cost half—or even less.

 Ironically, despite all this boat’s technology, it is a single straight inboard, and thus demands more experience to dock than boats with directional-thrust drivetrains.
