For 42 years I wrote a boating gadgets column for Powerboat Magazine. It was a magazine devoted to go-fast boats. I still keep in touch with high power boats, so when I heard about Nautique’s all-electric Super Air Nautique GS22E I wanted to find out more about it.

What is the SUPER AIR NAUTIQUE GS22E. The “E” is for electric! Yes, it's the first top-of-the-line fully electric ski boat. Here's some info on this new breakthrough from the company: The Super Air Nautique GS22E is a revolutionary electric towboat unlike anything else on the market today. For the ultimate on-water experience, Nautique has partnered with our sister company, Ingenity Electric, to bring the latest in electric propulsion technology to our multi-sport GS22E. The award-winning Ingenity Electric system operates using clean energy that delivers optimal performance for watersports activities in an eco-friendly package. Built onto the already widely popular Super Air Nautique GS22 platform, this new GS22E is a boat ready to connect families that like to do a little of everything on the water while emitting zero-emissions.

I had a chat with Shawn Perry, Brand Strategy Manager at Nautique, and asked him about the market for this boat and the charging options for it. I talk about his answers on this episode so you'll want to watch. I won't tell you the price of this boat here, but I'm willing to bet you won't come close to it when you take a guess! On air, Chad guessed the price really close!
