A boat (1) has a hull (2) and an apparatus (16) with an electric generator (18) for electric energy recovery; the apparatus (16) has a support (12), which is movable with respect to the hull (2) with a reciprocating motion along a trajectory (K), is coupled to the electric generator (18) so as to generate electric energy due to the movement between a top dead centre and a bottom dead centre along said trajectory (K) and carries a blade (10), arranged below the hull (2) so as to be permanently and completely arranged in the water during the use of the electric generator (18); the apparatus (16) has an actuator (14), which is operated by an electronic control unit (15) to vary an external configuration of the blade (10) and, hence, change a hydrodynamic lift or a hydrodynamic resistance along said trajectory (K) when the support (12) and the blade (10) reach the top and bottom dead centres.
