But some day I would love to get an electric surfboard or electric hydrofoil. Lot cheaper than an electric jet ski and looks like a lot more fun. Looks like you could get the same feeling as slalom skiing. And not have to depend on anyone to go do it when the water is right. And quiet as not to disturb anyone. Probably very little wake too. The hydro’s look a bit dangerous though, in that the foil can hit you. We had an air chair for years and loved it, but you were strapped to it so it could not hit you. But still had some spectacular wipe outs

We have 2 EV’s a Model X and a Chevy Volt, two EV Bikes both Raleigh Detour (love them). And we have solar panels to power everything. Our total energy cost is negative $2000/yr (yes, we make money due to incentive programs, also X includes free Super Charging).

Under $12,000.

There's an introductory sale on electric surfboard-foils: $3500. (Or you can build them using new parts).

Winter Harbor has three of 'em that come out when the oversized boats have left for the day.

The operators appear to be very accomplished at control, which is something the reviewers suggest takes over an hour to learn. (About the amount of time needed for a recharge).
