01 Apr SILENT-YACHTS SILENT 60 SOLAR ELECTRIC CATAMARAN

The 60-foot catamaran is powered by two electric motors fueled by 42 solar panels. In place of a traditional sail, the vessel gets a boost from a 9-square-meter kite. Its housed in a dedicated storage locker, along with an electric winch and collapsible mast, and when deployed, it generates power to pull the yacht with a figure-8 motion. This gives the batteries a chance to recharge and the boat to run with zero emissions. Below deck, the interior includes four guest cabins, the main salon, and a galley, while the aft cockpit, the bow area, and a flybridge provide ample space to enjoy the sea breeze. Two swim platforms can be extended to accommodate a pair of jet skis or a four-meter tender.
