Nick, can I say a BIG thank you for this? I've been completely enamored with these solar yachts and no one has put as much info on them on KZbin than yourself.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're very welcome 🙂

[@peterjordan-turner8789]

Fantastic. I love the idea of really sociable boating, where you can do your own thing without causing grief to other water users. Leaving the dock at 5 am but not starting up a diesel is the ultimate in being a good neighbour.

Yeah... but you have no idea what is the process recycling these batteries and solar panel. Have you?

Tristan has a series on his channel of a charter on one of these(sorry Nick for plugging another channel). @superyachtcaptain kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaCce5aIrtetgbM

[@phillo1818]

Yes indeed these catamarans are silent and expansive and the technologies are rapidly improving. That being said, I do like looking across the great expanses of waters from high above the ocean depths on my MY. The Silent series would make an ideal charter craft, so who knows. I must say those inset seating area(s) on the port and starboard decks look wonderfully comfortable. Have a wonderful week.

[@johngauntlett4915]

Nick, I've got to say that technology has advanced so fast that it's unbelievable what they've come up with. And not just in the Marine industry.

[@JJ-zg1hh]

I love these boats. Imagine gliding round the Med in this all summer without paying for a drop of fuel. More cash to spend on booze!

[@Frindleeguy]

puts out enough to cover hotel loads if you run the ac. Not enough to move around much without running the generator. The math is easy but making it seem better than reality is also easy (that's their marketing). This is the reality kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWnUmJuuqMloh7s . Still an awesome boat and worth every penny, but burning 50 gals / day of diesel to charge up the lithiums sponsored by genocide in Africa isn't going to make you feel better than burning diesel in a marine engine, assuming you want to understand the actual cost of this tech (for now).

[@TheStaniG]

@@Frindleeguy Maybe the 60 isnt good for more than day cruising but the 80 with essentially similar power draw but much larger solar area is actually where the real tradeoff comes into play? But the company hasnt shown the 80 literally anywhere and its getting kind of aggravating actually....

[@joatmofa0405]

It's a "YES from me!!!"

[@JohnnyBeGood123]

We rented an electric boat last year and went on holidays. Such a relaxing way to enjoy the environment.

[@trentstoner4102]

Perfection! What a boat. Silent, no fumes just lovely.

[@Frindleeguy]

When not running with a 4 knot current, it uses about 40kw (240kw at max speed) and produces at best 12kw for 6 hours a day. 9 kw for another 4 hours. 3kw for another 2. So you might make on a sunny day 114 kwh, and use about 1000kwh if you're moving, or easily 2500kwh if you want to go 7-8 knots instead of 5-6 . Trust, if you're gonna be doing anything but anchoring, you'll be making some fumes. If you math that out given the way generators work, you're looking at 40-60 gals/day. Of course, the philosophy of use for now is move at 5 knots for 6 hours a day and just use 4-6 gals of diesel if it's partly cloudy - cloudy, or zip around for 1 hour a day and charge back up at the dock. This is not a zero emissions vessel. I'd still take it any day of the week.

[@ronaldf8049]

Thanks Nick for the video. You delivered as promised 😊👍 Please bear in mind, that the solar panels still produce energy, also on a cloudy day like it was during the trail. For sure way off oeak but still decent. Unfortunate the audience here is not ready yet it seems. The same funny arguments like with electric cars a few years back and sometimes still today. As I'm driving Teslas for several years now, I know all of the strange arguments and calculations. People just don't get it still. Kind of sad in the meantime. Anyway. Great Yacht, great tech with literally INFINITE range at NO fuel cost. Sailing 2.0 in a way. And yes, after an awful lot of nm *) , the batteries may need to get replaced one day. But so does the rigging, the sails etc on a sailboat not to speak of the running costs on a conventional boat. At >250kWh with at least 2000 full cycles (no Hardcore peak power drain, no high power charging at high C rates) we are talking about something in the hundreds of thousands of nm lifetime, if SY does their battery management right. I'm sure they can provide some estimate on that

The noise is amazing, or more the silence is fantastic. I would still be skeptical of running out of charge but I’m sure with the help of the generator it would be perfectly fine. Give it 25 years and like electric cars these boats will be dominating the market! Great sea trial also Nick, thanks!

So saying we just need better batteries is moot, if the majority are all still manufactured in China. (Edit) Same goes for the solar panels. Business is booming Xinjiang with these policies

Makes me wonder just how much longer Sunseeker, Princess, Fairline, et al, can keep offering only 2x big diesels with not even a hint of hybrid propulsion (if only for the first 20-30 miles of the day)? They're already looking very backward compared with this Silent 60!

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

Solaryatchs are in the same game and Greenline in Australia do some solar heavy electric hybrids.. But i totally get what you say when you see a multi million vessel with ice power and ICE generators but no solar to even maintain electrical systems and house lithium battery systems when theres no shore power available, without someone being around to run the engines if they have super alternators or their old fashioned generators.all at great cost...and not good for main engines running sub optimally. BTW for confused US readers @4.5Litres is one Uk gallon. and the price of a litre of Diesel on the Uk has been £1.90 plus per Litre for non red diesel. Changing to Basalt fiber rather than GRP would reduce the mouldings wt by nearly half and increase strength and damage resistance as well as being a greener cheaper material to produce. A change of propellor design could also boost the performance and efficiency by 15-40% given an optimised prop or rim driven propulsor.

[@redwolfexr]

Almost all of these boats offer lithium storage batteries for the hotel loads - and more are going hybrid. But full solar boats are always a compromise and you are stuck at low speeds. The main advantage of the cells for storage is that even when you do have to run the generators you are getting maximum efficiency. Once they hit 90% you turn off the generator.

[@drawingdead9025]

The arrays are still producing power in cloudy conditions. Would have been interesting to see how much they were producing compared to the 15 kw being used.

[@TheMave34]

17 kWp

[@antronx7]

In that weather probably 1/10th of their rated output. Enough to power house loads.

[@aarongranger]

Saw another video on this boat yesterday... it was burning about 30kw/h with appliances, AC and making 5 knots (at least 6-7 people onboard and it looked warm out). It was in dense clouds, making about 5-6kw/h, if I remember correctly. The captain mentioned that once it got under 50% of battery, he'd turn on the generator, as they were in open water (near Ibeza). He could run as far as 30%, but he liked to have an extra cushion for safety in case of generator/solar/charger problems. I'm sure I got some of the numbers wrong... here's a link to the video where they went through the details: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWnUmJuuqMloh7s

Solar panel efficiency and battery technology is advancing almost every year. Just a few years ago solar panels were about 10% efficient, and now Tesla panels for homes are up to 20%. A new company in California has developed new solar cells that are 45% efficient, are cheaper to make, and weigh 75% less. Lithium Ion batteries are slowly going away and being replaced with Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries. They last almost ten times longer. Tesla has a new patent on lithium processing that uses no harmful chemicals and they are mining the Saltan Sea in California. If you read an article on these technologies that are three years old, your information is obsolete. Great video Nick. Thanks.

Too bad there was no chop to speak of, it would have been nice to see how the Silent does in some rougher waters. But it is an amazing bit of kit. I am really starting to take points off of all the boats I see that are still not going out with any kind of solar at all...not even a couple of panels to help out with the house load. I see so much progress in the boating industry when it comes to solar and other efforts to reduce fossil fuel usage, and yet so many manufacturers are just not joining in. And frankly, the same goes for the RV industry as well...too many manufacturers are just not emphasizing solar enough. ✌

It's settled: my retirement plan is to sell everything and buy a solar catamaran. Great livable space, stable, low maintenance, no running costs... I got about 25-30 years to go, by then for sure the range and efficiency will be ridiculous. Imagine adding solar panels on each side that unfold like a spacecraft from boxes under the solar roof, with a rotation point so you can set the vessel to "harvest" mode, and it will orient itself towards the sun, extend the panels and rotate them for maximum efficiency. If they haven't made it by then I will for sure try to get it done. It's doable right now with minimal engineering.
