THE UNSTOPPABLE SILENT 80 SOLAR POWERED CATAMARAN!

@@Humbulla93 I do not think 3D printing will be that useful. Pretty much all 3D printed objects suffer from decreased mechanical strength when compared to same objects made using traditional techniques. Of course, with 3D printing you can optimise struts and the shape to be better and thus more sturdy, something what you sometimes are simply unable to do with traditional manufacturing. But if you were able to get the same shape with traditional methods, it would be stronger.

[@michaelkoehler1077]

@Andris Falks you talk about batteries, yes, the productioni pollutes the environment. Have you thought about, how much fuel and the generation of fuel pollutes the environment? I drove with my Tesla 40.000 km last year, I produced with solar panels all the power myself. For this amount of km a conventional car would have needed about 5.000 liters of fuel. TO produce and to ship this amount of fuel requires about the same amount of fuel. What do you think, what pollutes the environment more - 10.000 liters fuel per year during 10 years =100.000 liters of fuel or some solar panels and some batteries - that last 20+ years and can be to about 90% recycled. Can burnt fuel be recycled?

[@dmitrii336]

@Andris Falks "Tell me about" All the answers are here www.tesla.com/impact-report/2019

[@gregb7353]

@Andris Falks Your pollution point has been thoroughly debunked and is just propaganda put out by those with an interest in electric cars failing. The specific study you probably read compared cradle to grave of an EV against gas without considering the pollution of building the gas car. They also assumed the EV would only have a lifespan of 100k miles which is obviously wrong as Tesla's are some of the higher mileage cars on the road. Obliviously on the car side EVs are going to win and pretty much everyone in the industry at this point has come to the same conclusion with all of them building EVs. While electric propulsion does have scaling issues on yachts not matter how much money you have, if you have enough money they can certainly perform very well in the majority of situations. Sure you could do the same for less money in a diesel yacht but part of the luxury you are paying for is not needing generators running at all why on the hook. If you are bouncing around island groups you might not ever need it except for longer passages.

If I remember correctly the founder of the company said the motors themselves need a replacement bearing after 20,000 operating hours. I haven't heard anything about the batteries but judging by the reliability of something like a Tesla's batteries I'd say they're probably good to go for years. We'll have to wait and see how the reliability of the boat's systems are over time though as that will probably come down to a quality assurance issue rather than parts.

Imagine, if the new battery is lighter, stores more energy, low degradation and cheaper to make in combination with more efficient, flexible and cheaper solar panels where you could even fit them onto more parts of the boat or additionally roll some more of them in and out for more charging power when stationary. All together with nearly no maintenance. Any gas-powered boat will feel like a hungry dinosaurs :). Lets see in 3 years from now. This is truly very exciting time to live in!

The 3-deck owner's penthouse version is my favorite (layout shown on their website). They are likely to dominate the whole day-trip market segment with these, both for people who agree with the virtues, and those who want to control operating expenses. Free fuel and no diesel engine maintenance cuts out 2 of the biggest expenses. I'm a little surprised they haven't incorporated a wind-turbine system as well. Maybe the new "silent" vertical wind generators still aren't silent enough, but that could add a lot of recharge power to go longer/faster. We know that wind-powered boats can cover a lot of range in a day, as thousands of years of sailing has already shown :)

[@BlaBla-pf8mf]

That version looks huge. I'm curious how effectively solar panels can move it.

[@jarkkoaitti287]

I think the world touring "energy observer" had vertical wind generators but changed those to retractable wing sails. You could also make (never seen, just had an idea:-) foldable helical wind generator quite easily. Those could be useful in windy cloudy anchor situations or when moving other than upwind..

[@gregb7353]

@Daver G I'm don't take issue with any of your calculations but I do with your conclusion. You simply can't compare HP between a diesel and electric motor and get any understanding of how it will perform. You have to pair each motor up with a prop that matches it's torque. Electric drives are 95% efficient where diesel is only 40% at best considering the torque curve is a lot harder to pair with a prop while an electric motor has a flat torque curve.

For a solar yacht grow lights use too much electricity, rounder hull would also increase the power drain, pods on top would reduce the amount of solar coming to the panels. Sea pool could be both expensive an maintenance hog at the sametime. Stabilizer would both use too much power on a solar yacht and I feel its pretty safe to say that in the medium future most solar yachts will be catamarans instead, that the stability isnt that much of an issue. This size of the boat would also need atleast 2 people to have enough free time from basic stuff like washing solar panels to make any sense. Probably 3-4.

I wish It would have more Solar panels and batteries for a continuous transatlantic passage. Or at least some solar panels in the back that could be able to pivot and use them as a sale in windy conditions, when the wind blows from rear. Or some other way to also use the wind somehow for long passages.

I would love to own this yacht, It's in my bucket list

[@okazerk]

How will this be powered? The panels can be used for a fridge and light bulbs

[@danmcsalley4974]

The regenerative power from the sail going through two engines combined with the solar would power the 105Kw batteries which in turn give you 10 to 12 knots on electric

I hope they still exist in the future because I definitely wanna buy and live on one

[@Assassin1959]

Can this boat navigate in open water to other countries or it is only for coast travel?

[@guilhermesantiago7365]

I don't know anything about yatchs and boats but somehow I ended up here and I completely fell in love. If I were to buy one of these, would I need a proper crew as in bigger yatchs, or could I just take it by myself to cruise with my family? If this one is too big, which size should it be to allow me to not depend on a crew? Thanks!

Tonight, I'll buy it tonight!

How much would the 60' cost? What is the back up plan if the electric motor fails?

[@user-dy2qq5wh4b]

I love the try deck open 80 version. Amazing yacht to explore with! Are you a broker for purchasing these? I see Sunreef now has an Eco line, with these new solar sheets that are placed on the sides and top of the vessel. however they haven't figured out the weight issue and still use diesel generators for the engines. Any estimated time when these 80 ft will be ready to view?

[@silentyachts]

Our first two SILENT 80s will be ready towards the end of this year, beginning of next year!

[@HandyC]

been back yet to see how this is coming along? Really interested in this

[@hollykelley4704]

OMG. I LOVE THIS BOAT

[@IsThisAvailable550]

This looks to be a fabulous beast. What is a 'ball park' cost for one of these? £5M - £10M or £50M? Just looking for a rough estimate.

[@sirus312]

hopefully 50-100k

[@antoninnotte2552]

Surprisingly, seems to be more in the 5M EUR range... At least from the few sources I found online
