I believe it's an ~8' ft. long RIS/Sportnautik from Croatia (have had some trouble finding any more specific information than that, at least through site pages I can use Google Translate on). That's really neat about the e-foil site- I'll definitely have to look more into that, I'm sure it could be a really interesting addition if/when I get this up and running! I know trying to put together a corrosion-resistant drivetrain assembly would be a fun challenge.

Ah, cool. Most of the people on that site are doing sealed underwater pod motors (much like a trolling motor) and even though those projects are all hydrofoils, a lot of the same advice for waterproofing brushless motors applies for a conventional boat. FWIW here's a really cheesy video for an electric outboard project I did back in college: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Elw9DDL6wTM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Elw9DDL6wTM
