Description
Ready to glide effortlessly above the water and enjoying the sound of air and water
instead of roaring engines?
The Candela C-8 represents the state of the art in electric foiling cruisers. The Candela C-8 offers the longest range and highest cruising speed of any electric boat in large-scale production. Its unique retractable foiling system requires just 2ft depth to launch and, once foiling, consumes 80% less energy than a planing boat. Enjoy a smooth, quiet ride above the waves!
This 2025 C-8 T-top is essentially brand new and includes a full cover and Candela trailer with electric winch. Whether it's a day out on the lake or an overnight across the Sound, the Candela C-8 is a great way to spend a day on the water.
She's currently docked at Signature in our marina on Lake Union - stop by and take a look!

As an award-winning dealership and brokerage today, Signature Yachts continues and builds on an outstanding reputation begun with its founding in1989 as a yacht importer. In the decades since, adjusting sails to meet shifting winds, it has evolved into the premier Northwest seller of Beneteau sailing yachts and Fountaine Pajot catamarans and a leading broker of pre-owned sailing and power yachts.
Words of its founder still provide guidance and inspiration: “We don’t sell boats,” said Robbie Robinson. “We help people buy them and then we back them with the best service in the business. The basis upon which we do this is called QSIV—Quality, Service, Integrity and Value. It is the basis of our history. It is also the foundation of our future.”
That future now lies in the hands of co-owners Tori Parrott and Dixie McCullough, who have successfully led Signature through challenging times since Robbie’s passing in 2019. In addition to their literal oceans of sailing experience and business acumen, they know their success depends on acquiring and keeping a strong team.
You also can count on us regularly for a friendly, enjoyable experience, not to mention large measures of fun at our annual get-togethers and legendary rendezvous.
