With a dream of giving more people the opportunity to experience the beautiful environments we have in Sweden, the idea of a boat that charges itself with solar panels was born. With technical finesse and a focus on simplicity, we also created a system that allows sharing a boat with others and experiencing nature together.
This is how we characterize Bowter EQ. With this boat you get the perfect platform for hassle-free ownership of a boat that takes care of itself beyond what you thought was possible.
Hull, deck, and other laminate parts are made of fiberglass-reinforced polyester with a gelcoat surface layer. Where the construction is sandwich laminate, the core is made of divinycell. The bottom beam is glued to the hull with a structural adhesive.
EQ 500 is equipped with AI Captain, an automated rental system that allows the boat owner to rent out their boat via Bowter's booking service and also via scanning of a QR code.
The system includes features such as route planning where the destination owner can draw out recommended tours, add attractions, and also indicate where not to go. There is support for other services such as food and drink from other local businesses, etc.
