It doesn't drive, it flies. It doesn't roar, it whispers. And it doesn't carry friends, because it can't – unless you carry them with another Pegasus. This is not a boat for fishing or pirate games. This is a boat for all those who look at the sea like they would a runway. This is - Foil One Pegasus.
For Foil One you probably haven't heard of it. And rightly so. It's a Swiss company run by a team of fanatics – not in a bad way, but in that romantic, Musk-style way, where every mistake is part of the journey and every prototype is a small victory. Their goal? Electrifying luxury on the water, without compromise and without pretense. And the first product is – Foil One Pegasus.
The Pegasus project was not born out of a business need, but out of pure obsession. An obsession with the lines of old sports cars, electric drive technology, and that special feeling when a boat "disappears" from the water.
So what exactly is the Foil One Pegasus?
If James Bond needed a single-seater to escape across a lake in Austria, it would be the Pegasus. It's 4.88 meters long, less than a meter wide, built from carbon fiber, and designed in a way that even Enzo Ferrari wouldn't be ashamed of.
Technical details / Foil One Pegasus:
- 14.9 kW engine (20 HP), enough to raise eyebrows.
- 2x 5 kWh Torqeedo batteries – for about 2 hours of driving (or flying).
- Maximum speed: 30 knots (56 km/h).
- Weight: 200 kg with batteries, 128 kg without.
- Charging time with fast charger: less than two hours.
- Steering? Like on a motorcycle. Seriously.
And yes – it rides on foils, which means the boat actually flies over the water. No noise. No waves. No bad conscience.
Why Foil One Pegasus is not just a technological product, but an experience
The beauty of the Pegasus isn't just in its carbon fiber and quiet electric hum. It's one of those products that makes you feel like you're in the future - even though you're sitting alone, without a radio, and without the many features of an SUV.
Riding the Pegasus is introspective, almost meditative. And once it lifts you above the water, you're like some kind of Elon Musk in a kayak. Just be quiet and x.com-free.
Luxury has its price
And now – the numbers. Base price: 109.900 € excluding VAT. If you want extra batteries and a fast charger, the final price increases to 120.502 €. But honestly – people pay more for a jet ski that looks like a space toilet.
Of course, you have the option to personalize it: colors, seats, handles, accessories... Foil.One Pegasus is not just a boat, it's a statement. Your arrival on shore is, hands down, more impressive than any tender with 25 seats and a mini bar.
Conclusion: a boat that should be in a museum – or in your garage
The Foil.One Pegasus is one of those products that is so special it's almost a shame to use it. And yet – that's what makes it magical. In a time when we're all looking for more, the Pegasus offers less – one seat, one engine, one experience.
If you don't mind the price and if you don't mind flying alone in the middle of the bay, this is probably the most fun electric thing on the water right now. The Bled lifeguards won't let you on the lake (yet). But who knows – maybe Pegasus will open up a new category: luxury electric swans.
