Concerned with the amount of modern technology that strives to keep us indoors and isolated, this project explored the white space in the recreational watersports market between kayaks and jet skis, striving to bring modern technology to the outdoors. Aiming to create another reason to get outside and be active, while leaving a small imact on the environment. The MAKO Explorer seeks to achieve this goal through utilizing E-Bike technology and Hydrofoils, introducing the physical exercise and silence of kayaks to the speed and freedom of jetskis.
