The Airfish-8 is 17,2 meters long and has a delta wingspan of 15 meters. The boat is reinforced with carbon fiber to reduce weight. It uses a 8 hp (500 kW) V373 engine, running on regular unleaded fuel.

The range is about 555 km, with 200 maximum speeds per hour.
Airfish-8 can also travel on waves, but that does not mean that it is recommended to take off in bad weather.
