FORT PIERCE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / October 6, 2022 / Forza X1, Inc. (Nasdaq:FRZA) ("Forza," the "Company"), a new developer of electric sport boats with a mission to inspire the adoption of sustainable recreational boating, today announced that it is designing the FX3, an electric pontoon boat to add to its model lineup.
Forza has engaged Matthew Blew of Blew Hatch Labs, an industry professional who has designed pontoon boats for several of the leading pontoon manufacturers, to assist Forza's engineers with Forza's modern electric take on the popular pontoon boat. Mr. Blew is a product designer experienced in marine design and holds a bachelor's degree in Fine Arts from Savannah College of Art and Design. "We're excited to be working with Matthew to introduce an electric pontoon to our model lineup. This boat helps advance our mission to manufacture products that promote environmental sustainability and allow for a much more serene and enjoyable time on the water," says Joseph Visconti, Executive Chairman and Chief of Product Development of Forza.

The Company plans to utilize the fiberglass hull platform from its FX1 electric boat models for its FX3 pontoon boat. "The FX1 hull was engineered and designed to lend itself as a multiple use platform," explains Jim Leffew, CEO and President of Forza. "Due to the integrated engineering of our FX1 hull, we can design the pontoon boat from the deck up, allowing us to store the two batteries in each hull." According to Leffew, much of the work around the center of gravity, electrical system, controller, wire harness, battery access panels, and 22-inch Garmin screen will remain the same. "We believe our fiberglass pontoon boat will better serve the market due to the material strength of fiberglass compared to aluminum tubes that pontoon boats have traditionally used in the past."
Forza anticipates that its electric FX3 pontoon boat will allow it to cater to a broader spectrum of customers in the recreational marine industry. "When Matthew and our engineers launch this new boat, Forza will be able to offer an ideal product for boaters in places like the Great Lakes Region, the Ozarks, Lake Tahoe, and Thousand Islands, to name a few. We believe the FX3 will make marine electrification more accessible than ever before."
