Arc, the company behind the powerful Arc One<\/a> and Arc Sport<\/a> electric boats, announced its next model today: the Arc Coast, a center console boat with many of the capabilities of its predecessors at a significantly lower price.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As a reminder, Arc is a relatively new company, founded in 2021 in Los Angeles, targeting the luxury boat market with high-powered electric boats. Its cofounders, Mitch Lee and Ryan Cook, are engineers who met while working at Boeing.<\/p>\n

The company has since grown to over 170 employees, and boasts that many of them are former SpaceX, Tesla, and Rivian workers (like, well, every other electric startup).<\/p>\n

It started with the Arc One, a $300,000 limited-edition 500hp electric speedboat, of which only 20 were made. Then Arc moved onto the Sport, a powerful wake boat made for lake activities (which we drove and it literally knocked us off our seat<\/a>), starting at $258k. It\u2019s also working on an electric tugboat for the Port of LA<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sales are going well with a substantial backlog and the Sport is sold out through the summer. It\u2019s currently hoping to ramp up production of the Sport \u201cinto the hundreds of boats a year,\u201d but it isn\u2019t there yet.<\/p>\n

But even while it ramps Sport production, it\u2019s looking to address other markets, and its new Arc Coast announced today is an impressive stab at that.<\/p>\n
