      Any who, it would be nice to have a special video to interview those who are making these kinds of "kites." What kind of device is it? How does it work? What is it good for? What safety precautions does the operator need to take? What significance does this technology mean for the sailing communities?

    You guys crack me up everytime.... Rico "I'm German, we don't joke".... I'm looking at the art peice over there. :) Vik going.... "He's talking over me....." But now seriously... I do have a problem with Catamaran companies that think that sell to direct owners. You have to have flat floors as much as possible, No body likes to step up, then down... and after a few cold ones on a boat that's a problem. I really want to see these kind of Cats being made for seniors, differently abled people that offer these conveniences. Be more people friendly and still keep the tech friendliness too.

    Finally a yacht without steering wheels, new commercial ships and work boats for the last ten years plus are rarely built with steering wheels. Also thrilled to see the kite system fitted to this yacht a plus for long passages. I believe that the separated head compartment on the starboard side serves double duty, day head and stateroom head.

    • @darthkek1953
      @darthkek1953 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Commercial ships rarely go as fast as typical leisure yachts so they can be built differently.

    • @usertogo
      @usertogo 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Better than solid state I think would be a flow cell battery where anolyte and catholyte tanks can be put in the lowest points of the hulls, allowing for huge capacity and super low center of gravity, and the only part that may ever require maintenance or replacement the actual flow cell and pumps, could be split into redundant units and close to the smaller short term storage LiFePO batteries and the motors... And yes I offer industrial design services and specialize in solar electromobility!

    @jonathanballesteros3327 2 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    I normally don’t leave comments on any channel but I absolutely love you two. The outtakes crack me up…And, most importantly, you two provide the highest quality review of boats. Nobody compares because you are connecting the dots on the practicalities and realities. That’s a huge trust factor, especially in a yachting culture that’s full of posturing and lacks any real understanding of what they are selling (beyond branding pretty boats). As an example, there’s no info out there that’s clearly states (5 knots = 18 hrs). Finally…some basis of reality.
    Of course…it’s fun to watch you two being playful and frustrated together. One without the other wouldn’t work. What a great team.
    Silent yachts have my attention…I’m interested.

    @DnBFinch 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    So with full batteries it can run one hour with 50% speed which translates to a range of 10 miles. With 100% Solar Power (only in perfect weather conditions) you can run the engines at a stunning 3% load which is basically the equivalent of a 20HP petrol engine. This isn't a yacht, it's a houseboat. A very expensive one.

    I love it!! Thanks for the tour!! So dreamy!! 100%? So I guess it could run without the generator, but does have one. not 100. Still love it!! Love the fact that it does produce so much water, and has a large generator. That means I could put real amplifiers and real speakers on board. Wanna pound it out on the anchorage? Fire up that genie! The music will drown the genie noise!! lol. Party on!! The layout is perfect. Very roomy, everywhere! The solar part is great. Kinda like sailing, without the sails. I can't wait to see what they come up with next. Fantastic!

      Sounds good at first. But when you take a closer look, you realize that if you don't want to or can't use the kite, you'll end up driving a diesel-powered ship again.
      The batteries store 210 kW, which is enough for 18 hours of travel at 5 knots. The solar system creates 17 Kw (peak) the hour. So it would take 12.35 hours to fully charge. But since you can only count on about 10 hours of effective solar radiation, you only get 170 Kw back into the batteries per day.
      This is better than nothing, but it is still not suitable for long trips. The charging power should be designed so that with about 10 hours of sunlight you can cruise for 24 hours (so with 5 to 7 kn) without having to use a kite as a "booster".
      The bottom line is not yet perfect, but at least a step in the right direction. I'm curious to see when the first solar boat suitable for long-distance travel comes on the market. It can't be that difficult to reduce the weight, increase the solar surface area and reduce consumption (e.g. through narrower hulls).

      @@tophan5146 Hi,
      of course I can increase the solar area. I could simply double the roof area and extend it sideways if needed.
      However, it would certainly make sense to first reduce the overall weight of a pure solar boat and also to significantly reduce the wetted surface, which is decisive for the driving resistance, by slimmer hulls.
      If you put all three together, i.e. solar surfaces that can be partially enlarged, less weight and lower frictional resistance in the water, it should be possible to achieve the required 5 knots of cruising speed over 24/7 with pure solar power charging and batteries for energy buffering.
      However, the people who can afford such a thing would then have to do without some cherished comforts such as air conditioning, oversized watermakers, hydraulic autopilots (in 24-hour use) and refined wood veneers, etc.
      And yes, you're right of course, sailing really is more beautiful. But we should also think about those who do not want to or can not sail and who prefer to sail on a direct course under engine to their destination and that in any weather.

      One option I can see is a hydrogen fuel cell generator and restoration rig. In addition to the batteries, one could produce the hydrogen, store it, and then use it in the fuel cell allowing spurts of greater speed.

      this catamaran used 220 liters (generator) of diesel on a test of 170 nautical miles, identical to what I used on a motor catamaran on a trip of 150 nautical miles, solar panels cover its air conditioners, lights, refrigerators, systems in general, from 15kw solar panels the maximum you can gain is 5 kw (on average), we are not yet technologically ready for this undertaking, but we are on the right track, at the moment it is not worth it for this price

    As a techie, I absolutely love this! I think the interior (and a small bit of the exterior) could use some more styling, but it's nothing to complain about. After all, we in EU are pretty acclimated to IKEA furnishings ;). Some day, maybe 10 years from now, the technology will be 2x better, so the speed and/or range will be double. But even now, if I had the money, I would put it here instead of a fixed penthouse somewhere.

      Hi Charles! Under ideal conditions - when cruising at 5 knots - you basically have unlimited range (as the energy produced by the panels equals the energy consumed by the propulsion system and the household appliances on board). The predecessor of this model, the SILENT 64, was the first solar powered production yacht to cross the Atlantic Ocean. You can check out the video of the crossing here: th-cam.com/video/EJUnZlYDOTE/w-d-xo.html
