Symphony Boat Company to Launch a new Electric Boat with Lamboo® Technologies
[Litchfield, Illinois, U.S.A., December 29, 2015] The Symphony Boat Company is pleased to announce the integration with industry leaders Lamboo® Technologies and Torqeedo to create their first all-electric boat line. This spring, Symphony will debut the Six-1 Conductor powered 100% from a motor by the leader in electric propulsion Torqeedo and built with product from Lamboo Technologies, the world leading bio-based materials company specializing in performance grade, engineered bamboo for structural, architectural, and OEM applications.
“Our motto at Symphony Boat Company is ‘in harmony with nature’,” said Marcel LaFond, owner, Symphony Boat Company. “We wanted an all-electric line to prevent pollution in our waterways and secure the pleasure of boating for generations to come. Partnering with Lamboo gave us one of the best renewable resources and the Lamboo technology created a beautiful grain and amazing strength to build our boats.”
Boat owners will enjoy the Six-1 Conductor’s quiet ride in speeds up to 27 miles an hour. Holding up to six adults, the boat will be a favorite among boaters who appreciate and surround themselves with sustainable design. The marriage of Torqeedo’s clean, powerful, leading Deep Blue technology and Lamboo’s performance grade bamboo hull, result in a boat with unmatched performance, beauty and sustainability.
