Pitch Deck

1 / —

Two Vessels. Two Profit Centers. One Vision. Together, they create the L’esprit marine tourism platform.

L’esprit is developing two complementary, revenue-generating businesses—not simply two stages of the same business.

  1. Phase I — Electric Water Taxi Operations: A scalable, revenue-generating marine transportation network utilizing Candela P-12 electric hydrofoils.
  2. Phase II — Luxury Superyacht Excursions: A premium hospitality and excursion business utilizing L’esprit's purpose-built 70-meter electric superyacht.

Funding Phase I can succeed independently while establishing infrastructure, customers, and operating relationships that support Phase II.
