Vision's 17-foot Phantom can be recycled up to nine times over
One man’s marine trash could soon become another’s treasure.
Vision Marine Technologies, the Canadian outfit known for building punchy electric outboards, just unveiled a fully recyclable runabout at the Miami International Boat Show.
Christened the Phantom, the electric day boat spans just under 17 feet and is crafted from a polyethylene plastic that renders it recyclable up to nine times over. On top of that, the newcomer is equipped with an electric propulsion system that enables quiet, emissions-free cruising.
The thick rotomolded plastic hull is “indestructible,” according to Vision. (It comes with a lifetime warranty, in fact.) It is also lightweight, with the Phantom tipping the scales at just 800 pounds. As a result, the boat offers greater speed, efficiency, and range than heavier competitors. Vision says the hardwearing plastic requires less maintenance than other materials, too.
