Lift Ocean retrofits existing powerboats up to 30 feet with a three-foil hydrofoil system designed to improve fuel efficiency and ride comfort.1:36 The system consists of one forward foil and two aft foils that deploy via a single button press, allowing the vessel to transition from displacement mode to foiling at 15–16 knots.0:23 When retracted, the foils sit entirely out of the water, enabling the boat to operate as a standard hull.3:07 During testing on a 2007-model boat equipped with a 115-horsepower engine, the system maintained a cruising speed of 25 knots at significantly reduced throttle compared to non-foiling operation.10:38 The foils automatically adjust for pitch, roll, and turn banking, which stabilizes the boat in waves and eliminates the bow-up attitude typical of semi-planing hulls.5:51 This technology reduces fuel consumption by approximately 50 percent and minimizes wake while improving visibility and steering control.7:04 The system targets cruising speeds between 20 and 30 knots, offering a cost-effective alternative to purchasing a new carbon-fiber hydrofoil vessel.1:53
