Lake Of The Ozarks Shootout To Be A Testing Ground For Brand-New Electric Boat Motor

In 2019, a quiet but powerful technology made waves as the first electric-powered boat to run at the Lake of the Ozarks Shootout. Developed by Vision Marine Technologies Inc., the Volt 180 hit a speed of 30 mph, making it the fastest electric boat on the water at the time. That might not seem like much to Shootout fans accustomed to speeds upwards of 200 mph, but it gave Vision Marine a big lead in the race to develop faster, more powerful electric boats that may someday give their gas-powered counterparts a run for their money.
