An Incredible Journey Across the Ocean
A group of passionate Waydoo eFoil users recently made waves as they successfully crossed the open waters from Miami, Florida, to the Bahamas. This remarkable achievement marks them as the first team to undertake this 100-kilometer journey on eFoils without any stops. The challenge was not merely about distance; it symbolized their unyielding dedication to a shared passion, their perseverance, and the unwavering faith they had in their state-of-the-art eFoil technology.
Hau, the expedition leader, recounted, "Before we set off, there was a moment where I questioned if we could truly fly over the ocean on an eFoil." The team, consisting of individuals from various professional backgrounds, shared a common love for the sea and a deep trust in Waydoo's products. Their five-hour journey culminated in successfully crossing this significant maritime channel.
Confronted with challenges such as drifting seaweed, dazzling reflections on the water's surface, and variable waves, the team maintained unwavering focus. Hau further explained, "Thanks to our relentless concentration and trust in the Waydoo Flyer EVO, we overcame every challenge. The C1100 gliding wing provided exceptional lift and stability, while the plug-and-play battery system allowed for seamless exchanges mid-sea, enabling us to focus fully on the journey."
Team member Sal emphasized the Flyer EVO’s capability, stating, "It's not just powerful; it gave us real confidence. On open water, speed is essential, but so are stability, safety, and endurance, and the Flyer EVO excelled in all these areas." Powered by four battery units, the team maintained an average speed between 18 to 24 mph throughout the ride. The depths reached over 700 meters in some areas, yet the efficient propulsion system of the Flyer EVO ensured consistent performance, allowing the members to immerse themselves in the journey without worrying about the equipment.
As a fully electric, emission-free watercraft, the Waydoo Flyer EVO embraces a more sustainable approach to ocean exploration. Its highly efficient motor, smart flight assistance system, extended battery life, and high wave resistance enabled this ambitious ocean crossing. Each mile tested the team's physical limits, solidifying their determination. The route from Miami to the Bahamas, a dream for many sea adventurers, became a reality through teamwork and innovation.
Waydoo continues to enhance accessibility in water sports through ongoing innovation. This monumental voyage not only highlighted the dedication of its users but also showcased their strong bond with the brand. Building on this foundation, they look forward to even greater opportunities on the water.
