Love this quote by JFK â¤ď¸đ But we canât go âback to the seaâ with machines of the past. Stability through mass and brute force is being replaced by stability through math and ~400Hz control loops. Smaller, stable vessels will change the game đ

Physics is cool. Most boats will throw you sideways during a turn. But we programmed N30 like a fighter jet- it executes a perfect coordinated turn. Eg, 28 knots, bank angle~25deg⌠but almost zero lateral G forces. Keep a glass of champagne on the table and it wonât spill!

Lenders can more easily work with state and local agencies to find grants and programs that may help borrowers afford a home thanks to our streamlined resources. Learn how.

Software retrofits donât fix bad physics. Strap autonomy to an inefficient hull⌠you just get autonomous inefficiency đ¤ˇđťââď¸

Conviction is often lonely. If your reasoning comes from first principles, stick to it. Hype doesnât tackle high tides. Physics does.đ
@MuskUniversity Physics is the law, everything else is a recommendation. Anyone can break laws created by people, but I have yet to see anyone break the laws of physics.

Sometimes you see the destination before the map exists. Then you have to figure out the map. Itâs kind of a jagged path.

Sometimes you wonât fit in. Youâll say ânoâ more than you say âyes.â When you can close your eyes and see the end state, you just want to sprint toward it. Everything else feels like noise. Some of us arenât weird- weâre just wired for the future.

Most boats rely on brute force. We use vectorable outboardsâeach motor steers independentlyâletting the vessel translate, rotate, and station-keep with centimeter-level precision. This fine-grained control is essential for robust autodocking and our autonomy stack.

Integrating the carbon-fiber retractable foils is some of the hardest engineering we do. But when you get it right, you unlock quiet, stable, extremely low-drag flight above the water â and that feels like magic. Proud of this team building the future.

Production can be messy at times. Wrapping up delivery of Batch 1. Batch 2 hulls are already here. Busy day reorganizing the hangar. 3 years ago we rolled in with a janky prototype. Donât let looks fool you tho- that software scaled beautifully to the big beasts đđ

Ended up going back into the cave- hardcore engineering mode- much like grad school. Feels good what came out of it. But the updates start tomorrow! LOTs to share⌠and some of it will fundamentally change what we can do on the water.đ
Returning to X after some heads down time â pretty insane whatâs getting built in the hangar. Itâs time to go back to the sea! Great time @ up summit last week!

Itâs totally incredible they were able to fly this beast in from space as an unpowered glider. https://t.co/EunYgJnbL6
