How does an Arc boat compare to a gas-powered boat?
Our boats are far more reliable, cheaper to operate and maintain, quieter, quicker, and more seamlessly integrated with software than any gas boat. Plus, they don’t release harmful emissions into the air and water when you use them.
How do I charge one of Arc’s boats?
Our boats can be charged using a variety of methods — from a standard wall outlet (Level 1) to something you’d use to power an electric car in your garage (Level 2), or even a DC fast charger (Level 3). All of our boats use the CCS1 charging standard shared by most electric cars on the road today, so your charging options and speeds are numerous.
What maintenance is required on an Arc boat?
Electric powertrains have far fewer moving parts than combustion engines. This means significantly less time spent on maintenance and more time spent on the water. Keep our boats clean, and keep them charged. There's not much more to it than that.
Electricity and water don’t mix... what makes Arc’s boats safe?
All Arc battery packs and electrical systems are watertight, heavily reinforced, and constantly monitored to give boaters and their families peace of mind on the water. It’s also worth mentioning that many larger boats run on high voltage “shore power” when docked, so electricity in boating isn’t a new challenge. Likewise, today’s electric cars operate in a wide range of wet, harsh conditions that demand rigorous protection similar to that found on our boats.
How can I demo one of Arc’s boats?

Where are Arc boats made?
Our boats are designed and built out of our factory in Los Angeles, CA.

What features come standard with the Arc Sport?
The Arc Sport is built with premium as the standard. All Arc Sport models come with over-the-air software updates, an intelligent ballast system, an auto-retract carbon fiber tower, a 100% electric powertrain, JL audio speakers, three integrated cameras, and ample storage for up to 8 boards.
What features do I have the ability to add on?
With Arc Sport Packages, you can customize your boat to match your needs. Available add-ons include:
How long does the Arc Sport take to charge?
An overnight charge using a Level 2 charger (what most homes use to charge an electric car) will get you a full battery in time for your morning ride. If you have access to a Level 3 fast charger, you can charge 80% of the battery in as little as 45 minutes. No more lugging gas cans down to a dock or paying marina gas prices; wake up each morning to a boat that’s ready to go!
How long can I use the Arc Sport on a single charge?
For most people, the Arc Sport can handle a typical day out on the water. The exact usage time depends on how you... well, use it. Cruising around at lower speeds is sustainable for over 24 hours straight, whereas spending more time at high speeds will use the battery faster. On average, the boat should support 4-6 hours of active usage time, including plenty of towing.
Can I use the Arc Sport in saltwater?
Salt water is no problem for the Arc Sport, and only requires a little extra care to keep it clean.
Can you surf behind the Arc Sport?
Absolutely! We built the Arc Sport as a dedicated wake boat. Not only is it quiet and punchy, but it also throws a great wake!
Does the Arc Sport come with a warranty?
Yes! The Arc Sport comes with a 5 year powertrain warranty with unlimited hours, plus over-the-air software updates to enhance performance over time.
How much is the Arc Sport?
The Arc Sport starts at $268,000. We’ve priced the Arc Sport to be directly competitive with other premium gas wake boats on the market. With our Nav, Wake, and Sound package options, you can now tailor your boat with upgrades that match your style, whether that means enhanced navigation, bigger waves, or a more immersive sound experience.
How does the Arc Sport get smarter over time?
We’re constantly updating and improving our boats through over-the-air (OTA) updates. By leveraging the powerful onboard computer and built-in data plan, we can add entirely new capabilities to the boat’s controls, delivering those updates wirelessly to customers wherever they are.
How much ballast does the Arc Sport have?
The Arc Sport delivers 9,600 lbs of total displacement, with the option to add an additional 1,000 lbs of ballast through the Wake Package, all controlled through Arc’s touchscreen driver interface.
Do you offer financing and insurance?
We can connect you with a provider that can support all of your financing, registration, and insurance needs!
What if I run out of power?
Unlike a gas boat, running out of power on an Arc Sport is highly unlikely. Not only will the boat give you a warning if you start to get low on battery, but it can also run at slower speeds for extended periods of time (think of low power mode on your iPhone). If you’re in the middle of Lake Tahoe, you can get back to any other point on the lake with less than 5% of power.
How many Arc Ones were produced?
The Arc One was an exclusive, limited-edition model that we only produced a handful of. We’re now scaling this technology to the mass-market with the Arc Sport.
Can I still buy the Arc One?
The Arc One is sold out. The Arc Sport is the only model available for sale.
