The most distinctive feature of the iFLY15 is the combination of stable flight with high performance. This is achieved by high-tech components, such as solid carbon-titanium foils and the patented FlySafe® technology. The advanced mechanical flight control system employs aviation technology to actively stabilize the horizontal flight attitude, longitudinally and laterally.


About the designer: Michael is a German aviation engineer. After having run several engineering companies and working for Airbus and BMW he made his passion his profession and founded the iFLY15 project by bringing together an interdisciplinary team of 20 international sailing and avionics experts from all over the world. Since 2015, he has devoted 100% of his time, energy and love to iFLY.


The boat has been flying since 2016, and 40 iFLYs exist worldwide. 2020 production is 50 units/year. The iFLY15 lifts off in as little as 5-6 kts. In 6 kts. of wind, she reaches 14kts. of boat speed. Currently, the highest recorded speed on the iFLY15 is 33kts. Even at 33 kts., she remains fully under control and iFLY15 can slow down quickly at any time.


The iFLY credo:  > We love SPEED while keeping CONTROL <
