Revolutionizing Boating: The Arc Coast
The world of boating is set to change with the introduction of the Arc Coast by the Arc Boat Company, a dynamic startup based in Los Angeles that specializes in crafting high-performance electric boats. This innovative 24-foot center console is designed to meet the demands of today’s boaters, aiming to deliver a smoother, quieter, and more enjoyable experience without the burdens typically associated with traditional gas-powered models.
A Fresh Perspective on Center Consoles
For years, center consoles have been favored not just for fishing trips but also for leisurely outings with friends. However, many boaters have experienced frustrations due to outdated technology, noisy engines, and complex maintenance requirements. The Arc Coast addresses these pain points by offering a streamlined, modern alternative. According to Mitch Lee, the co-founder and CEO of Arc, "People love center consoles, but the experience hasn't improved. The Arc Coast is what you get when you start from scratch."
Innovative Design and Technology
At the heart of the Arc Coast's innovative approach is its redesigned helm, which replaces the traditional array of switches and gauges with a single, intuitive touchscreen interface. This centralizes navigation, diagnostics, and entertainment, allowing users to stay connected without distraction. Furthermore, over-the-air software updates will enhance functionality long after the initial purchase, ensuring that the boating experience evolves alongside the technology.
The Arc Coast is powered by a high-voltage battery system inherited from the Arc Sport model. This system provides instant torque and silent acceleration, drastically reducing noise pollution associated with boating and allowing for a peaceful escape on the water. Coupled with low maintenance needs, the Arc Coast is engineered to deliver a hassle-free ownership experience.
Versatile and Spacious
Notably, the Arc Coast’s open deck layout is designed with flexibility in mind, providing seating for ten while adapting to various activities—be it fishing, lounging, or socializing. The compact sterndrive motor replaces the conventional outboard, enabling a full-beam swim platform along with an expansive sunpad. This design modification not only creates more useable space at the waterline but also contributes to a quieter, cleaner, and unobstructed boating experience compared to traditional engines.
Joining the Electric Revolution
The Arc Coast represents the latest addition to a rapidly expanding fleet of electric vessels, including the already popular Arc One and Arc Sport models. With the increasing emphasis on sustainable practices, the innovative shift to electric boating can significantly reduce carbon footprints while providing high-performance options for all boaters.
