Pollentia at IBEX

Pollentia made waves at this year’s International BoatBuilders’ Exhibition and Conference (IBEX) in Tampa, Florida, with the official introduction of Ventus, our rebranded flagship model. Formerly known as Aurora, Ventus marks a significant evolution in electric boating, combining cutting-edge technology, sustainable performance, and sleek design.

Our CEO and Founder, Tyler Temple, delivered an electrifying pitch that captivated the crowd, highlighting Pollentia’s ambitious vision and our competitive edge in driving the electrification of the marine industry. Tyler’s presentation didn’t just showcase Ventus as a revolutionary electric boat—it solidified Pollentia’s role as a true leader in the movement toward sustainable innovation.

Ventus: The Evolution of Innovation

The Ventus First Generation builds on the legacy of Aurora with a 40-foot fully electric design that offers unparalleled luxury and performance.

Key features include:
AI Co-Captain: Assisting with navigation, collision avoidance, and predictive maintenance to enhance safety and ease of use.
Advanced Water Jet Propulsion: Achieving speeds up to 40 knots with seamless acceleration.
Sustainable Performance: Ranges of up to 350 miles on a single charge, with fast-charging options for both short- and long-range configurations.

The rebranding from Aurora to Ventus symbolizes our commitment to forward momentum, embodying the Latin word for “wind” and the spirit of progress.

Breaking Ground and Leading the Charge

Pollentia also announced our intentions to expand operations into key coastal states like Florida, a hotspot for the boating community and a hub for sustainable innovation. Florida is poised to become a cornerstone for Pollentia’s operations as we bring Ventus to life and expand access to electric boating technology.

The overwhelmingly positive response to Tyler’s pitch underscored the strength of Pollentia’s vision—not just as a competitor in the electric boating market, but as a leader in driving the entire industry forward. Attendees at IBEX were inspired by our ambition, recognizing that Pollentia is at the forefront of transforming marine travel with intelligent technology and sustainable solutions.

At IBEX, Pollentia didn’t just showcase a boat—we introduced a movement. With the debut of Ventus, we’ve demonstrated our ability to compete and lead in a rapidly evolving industry, setting new standards for performance, sustainability, and innovation.This is only the beginning. As we expand our reach, refine our technology, and grow our community, Pollentia remains committed to shaping the future of boating.
