The Artemis EF-12 Escape is a fully electric, foiling water taxi designed to provide safe, quiet, and sustainable transport. With its patented eFoiler® technology, this innovative vessel lifts above the water to deliver a smooth and stable ride while eliminating the noise, vibration, and emissions of traditional craft.

Capable of cruising at 30 knots with a foiling range of up to 52 nautical miles, the EF-12 Escape is well-suited to urban waterways, resort destinations, and eco-sensitive routes. Fast charging in under an hour ensures quick turnaround between journeys, making it ideal for frequent passenger service. With space for 12 guests and 2 crew, it combines practicality with a premium passenger experience.

Rising gracefully above waves, the EF-12 Escape offers a smooth, whisper-quiet ride that enhances onboard comfort. Its foiling capability minimizes wake and the impact on nearby shorelines. The elegantly appointed interiors, complete with a discreet galley and refined finishes, ensure a luxurious experience for guests. Every journey aims to be efficient—in time, energy, and environmental impact.

Charging is simple and flexible, with ultra-fast charging systems enabling a full recharge in less than 60 minutes. Without the need for fuel stops, oil changes, or exhaust after-treatment, operators can focus on providing seamless service. The foiling design further reduces wake, protecting shorelines and minimizing impact on sensitive waterways.

With its cutting-edge propulsion, premium interior, and emission-free performance, the Artemis EF-12 Escape sets a new standard for water taxis. It combines luxury and sustainability with reliable performance for modern passenger transport.
