Electric boats are watercraft that are powered primarily by electric motors rather than traditional internal combustion engines. These boats utilize batteries or fuel cells to store and supply electricity, enabling them to operate quietly and with reduced emissions compared to conventional boats. Electric boats can come in various forms, including personal watercraft, yachts, ferries, and commercial vessels, and they are often seen as a more environmentally friendly alternative for recreational and transport purposes on waterways. The technology behind electric boats continues to evolve, leading to improvements in battery life, charging infrastructure, and overall efficiency, making them increasingly viable for widespread use.
