Say hello to The Supercub
The Supercub is a small boat with big impact. Built to serve as a dependable work skiff or dive boat, it provides easy water access, rugged durability, and reliable handling. Perfect for nearshore operations, aquaculture tasks, or dive support missions, the Supercub gets crews where they need to be quickly and safely.
When powered by Photon’s electric outboard, the Supercub becomes a clean, quiet, and cost-efficient tool for operators — ideal for repetitive daily missions where noise reduction, low maintenance, and predictable costs make all the difference.
Qualifies for CARB/CORE and WAZIP vouchers, helping small operators access the same incentives available to larger fleets.
