A fully electric hydrofoil boat comprises an elongated hull, a front canard hydrofoil supported by a front support system configured to raise or lower thereof, and a pair of independently-controlled port and starboard rear stowable hydrofoils supported by their respective rear support systems, configured to raise or lower the rear hydrofoils to a selected depth or tilt them out of the water when docking or transporting the boat on a trailer. The hull has a cut-out section in the front portion sized to fit the front canard hydrofoil out of the water if desired. The boat may operate energy-efficiently in a hydrofoil flight mode at high speeds or in a displacement mode at slow speeds when the hydrofoils are in their raised positions.
