Candela’s Flying Electric Boat Is Secret Weapon In Wind-Powered Boat Race
The idea is to give media and visitors a closer look at the action. While the chase boats aren’t expected to keep up nearly the same pace as the racers, they do need some performance chops.

Candela’s engineering is based around a computer management system the company compares to fighter jet flight controls. Bruno Dubois, Team Manager of France SailGP Team, echoed the sentiment. “It’s the best way to give our guests, VIPs and media an experience that is the closest to what our sailors live on board an F50: sailing at 30 knots on a boat that flies on the water,” he said.Impact League with its own leaderboard
