I got soaked driving the Arc Sport electric boat


TechCrunch reporter Sean O'Kane took the Arc Sport out for a jaunt on Lake Mead. Here's what he discovered.

There was a Tesla-style horizontal touchscreen with smart, fluid software that didn’t scream “legacy manufacturer.” A second screen sat behind the wheel on the helm, showing speed, battery level, and a view from the forward-facing camera. I didn’t ask him if the evaporation of freshwater lakes is a risk for Arc’s addressable market – that’s a grim idea I’ll be sure to raise next time.
