Arc is one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies for 2026

We built Arc to deliver the best experience on the water — better technology, better performance, better everything. This recognition from Fast Company is a reflection of that work. But it's also just a checkpoint.

The industry was overdue

The marine industry hasn't changed much in decades. Gas engines, dated systems, an experience that hasn't kept pace with how people expect technology to perform. Arc was built on the premise that it didn't have to be that way.

Electric propulsion is the upgrade. More torque, instant response, no fumes, no noise bleeding into the experience. On the Arc Sport, that means a wake boat that outperforms what came before it. On the Arc Tug, it means commercial vessels with lower operating costs and more uptime. Economics make the decision easy.

Fast Company cited five reasons Arc made the list this year:

  • Arc is just five years old, and already reshaping an industry
  • We developed our battery and software entirely in-house
  • We announced the Arc Coast, our new center console boat
  • We entered the commercial market with the Arc Tug
  • We grew our team to 200 employees

Technology built without a ceiling

What makes Arc different isn't just the powertrain. It's the software that integrates with it. The design decisions are made without shortcuts. The engineering that treats the marine environment as a serious problem worth solving seriously.

Both products share the same standard: build it better than what exists, then keep building.

What comes next

Fast Company's recognition covers what Arc has shipped. What it doesn't cover is what's in development. More vessels, more markets, more technology pushing into an industry with a lot of catching up to do.

We're not close to done.
