Love cycling and yachting? Meet your new obsession.
If you’re into active adventures on two wheels and can’t imagine your life without the sea — the folks from New Zealand just read your mind. Meet the Hydrofoiler by Manta5 — a water bike that lets you cycle on water.
This futuristic ride is built specifically for exploring coastlines where a yacht can’t get too close. It’s powered by a battery that lasts up to 4 hours and weighs around 31 kg, despite being made of lightweight carbon fiber.
There’s even a dedicated smartphone app so you can track engine data and performance in real time. And don’t worry about storage — it’s designed to fit in your car trunk or tuck neatly onto your yacht.
But don’t be fooled — it’s not a lazy ride. You’ll need to pedal hard enough to lift yourself onto the surface and keep your balance to avoid sinking back down. So it’s time to train those legs if you want to give it a try once it hits the waters of Turkey.
You’ve got time though — the price tag isn’t exactly gentle: around $9,000, not including shipping.
