A watercraft is provided that includes a support platform having a bottom surface. The watercraft includes a hydrofoil disposed on a strut extending from the bottom surface of the support platform. The watercraft includes a propulsion system coupled to the bottom surface of the board such that a thrust generated by the propulsion system moves the board through a body of water. The watercraft includes a position sensor, a speed sensor, and an altitude controller. The position sensor is configured to output position data of the watercraft relative to a surface of water. The speed sensor is configured to output speed data of the watercraft. The altitude controller is configured to adjust the thrust generated by the propulsion system based at least in part on a ride height derived from the position data and a speed derived from the speed data to achieve a target ride height.
