YACHTS & YACHTING
That ’ s why VITA Yachts started to design their first electric boat , VITA IV launched in 2018 , followed by VITA X in 2019 , and then the VITA Lion launched earlier this year .
Tom Claeren had the chance to experience a day onboard the very last creation of VITA YACHTS on the French Riviera coastlines . The Lion is the most potent electric powerboat on the market , all-electric with a V4 propulsion system from VITA Power . The VITA Lion is the only electric boat with supercharging capability , in only 40 minutes DC charge time , allowing you to recharge while having a drink or a lunch at the beach . He had an excellent glimpse of this 10,5-meter-boat with a cruising speed of 25 knots with an exquisite design and clean lines . As Tom Claeren is always attracted by great sensation and speed , he could not resist testing the maximum speed of this powerful boat , going to 35 knots at its top speed .
In addition , this boat has been designed to be very practical and spacious , leaving enough room to bask in the rear sunbath while admiring the sunset over Monaco .
