Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates The Artemis eFoiler is a range of zero-emissions hydrofoil boats currently being developed in Belfast, Northern Ireland, by Artemis Technologies. The 24-metre passenger variant will be used by Condor Ferries on a route between Belfast and Bangor from 2024.[1][2] The hydrofoil enables it to have low water resistance and therefore minimal wake.[3][4]

The 11-metre long boat will carry up to 24 passengers and has a cruising speed of 25 knots and a range of 60 nautical miles.[3] A Belfast Maritime Consortium led by Artemis Technologies won a £33m grant from the UK government to develop the boat. The boat began sea trials in April 2022 on Belfast Lough.[5]

In October 2020, British MP Nus Ghani was announced as a non-executive director of Artemis.[6]
