Is silent a solar-powered superyacht?
Wind, by the way, is created by uneven heating of the Earth’s surface from the sun. Now, Silent-Yachts, an Austrian company specializing in luxury, solar-powered vessels, thinks it’s time to skip the middleman. The Silent 120 Explorer is a solar-powered superyacht that comes with optional electric aircraft and submarines.
Can a solar-powered yacht cross the Atlantic?
One of the company’s solar-powered yachts has even crossed the Atlantic using solar energy most of the time. The largest of Silent-Yachts’ vessels, the Silent 120 Explorer, will be 120 feet long and come with plenty of toys aimed at the ultra-wealthy.
How do solar panels work on a explorer?
The solar panels can also slide outboard port and starboard to reveal a touch-and-go landing pad across the Explorer’s 13.85-metre beam. “The trend is for bigger yachts and more luxury, more comfort, more water toys and more possibilities,” said Michael Köhler, founder and CEO of Silent-Yachts .
How much energy does a 'silent' yacht use?
The top of the yacht is covered with 40kWp (kilowatt peak) of solar panels, which Silent says is capable of producing enough energy to cover the yacht’s ‘hotel loads’ and ‘significant’ fossil-free cruising at six-eight knots. At full power, the craft can travel up to 16 knots.
