A Slovenian company, on display this weekend at the Vero Beach boat show, by Novurania of America, an Italian-based company that manufactures in Vero Beach. Smart design, huge weight savings ------------------------- wavewatcher - >ww - >wavewatcher, again

tom Posts: 8546 Joined Forum: 07/25/2003	^Yes! Some designers are on board (haha!) with that. Electric saildrive for propulsion. Solar and wind for constant charging. Generator for backup or high demand, think extended motoring or (gasp!) AC. This is essentially a plug in hybrid with the expected improvements in efficiency. https://www.bavariayachts.com/...e-make-sailing-silent/ ------------------------- add a signature since I'm here in profile anyway

I like thehttps://www.torqeedo.com/us/en...-fp--48v-/1328-00.html clever bolt on pods, no rotating drive shaft exiting underwater. Big drives. https://www.torqeedo.com/us/en...00i-900/000-01059.html Pods. ------------------------- add a signature since I'm here in profile anyway

nukeh2o Posts: 10053 Joined Forum: 03/18/2016	Anybody who's actually going deep is going to have more than one propulsion source. And more than one way to procure it and run it. And always keep that snaggly ol' 3-5hp kicker outboard to get you home.... when all else fails ------------------------- It's a democratic hoax
