  • The company's first model, Arc One, was followed by the Arc Sport, designed for activities like wakeboarding and water skiing.
  • Electric boats address common pain points of gas boats, including maintenance hassles and high fuel costs.
  • Arc Boats employs over 100 staff, including former Tesla and SpaceX engineers, to drive innovation.
