What a buyer should know
Who it suits
Ripple's debut, the 10m Day Cruiser, is a serious attempt at a fully-equipped electric day cruiser rather than a novelty. Ten metres with a 3.2-metre beam, an extendable hard-top bimini with inset glazing, folding balconies and a cabin with two berths puts it in the bracket of buyers who want a boat to spend a full day aboard in Nordic weather, not a fair-weather runabout. The backing matters: Frydenbø Marine is an established Nordic production builder, with Pascal Technologies supplying the efficiency work and Thorup Design the styling. That combination reduces, without eliminating, the usual start-up risk.
What the numbers mean
A 190 kWh bank feeding twin 93 kW motors for a quoted 45 nautical miles is the most informative figure here, because it is a range claim on a boat with the battery to back it. Forty-five miles is a real day's cruising in sheltered water at sensible speeds, and the honesty of the figure — no headline 100-mile claim — reads well.
The caveats are commercial rather than technical. No price has been disclosed, and the source for that is 2023, so the model's current availability and delivery position both need confirming. A wider 6–11 metre range is planned but conditional on this boat succeeding.
Written from the builder’s published specifications and the wider market, not from testing the boat ourselves. Always confirm figures with the manufacturer before committing.
