The special thing here is that the hydrofoil uses less energy than your typical boat, and they figured out how to recharge it without expensive infrastructure upgrades.The boat can’t go 160 miles without a recharge, but it doesn’t have to do stuff like replace a battery to continue on the next leg of its voyage.
40 miles per charge, for those that haven’t read it. That’s enough for a return trip on a whole lot of ferry journeys, though. Certainly a good chunk of the major ones where I am
