Electric sailboat propulsion systems that are cost-effective, yet CLEAN, GREEN and QUIET!
Our Mission:
Electric Yacht is dedicated to the design and construction of electric propulsion systems for boats. It is our goal to make affordable engineered systems available to replace gasoline and diesel engines in auxiliary sailboats, launches and other small craft. We believe electric auxiliary power is the wave of the future, and are committed to doing our share to make electric power the power of choice in the boating world. The future is now!
Advantages of electric power:
Clean...
No trips to the gas dock
No oil and grease in the bilge
Environmentally friendly
Green...
No fossil fuels
Generates power while under sail
Add a wind generator or solar panels and become energy self-sufficient
Quiet...
Have a relaxed "wine and cheese" cruise around the
marina or lake.
Converse with people on shore without yelling...
Hear the water lapping the hull and the rolling swish of
the wake instead of a rumbling engine and spitting exhaust...
Won’t disturb wildlife
No need to raise your voice so your crew (and everyone
else in the harbor) can hear you
Instant power, improved maneuverability...
No warm-up time
No shifting, no grinding of gears while trying to wiggle out of a tight docking situation, full motor torque is available from zero to full speed
Speed control down to zero RPM, giveng you precise control over the amount and direction of thrust
Motor sail quietly when the wind is light
The right choice for today’s sailor…
Perfect for lake sailors
Plenty of power and range to motor home
Clean and quiet
Great for racers…
Total system weight can be as low as 250lbs
Virtually no maintenance
No warm up time, no engine stalls, no hassles
Excellent for the weekend sailor…
Enough range for most weekend sailors to motor home, if the wind quits
Range can be extended indefinitely with the addition of a gas or diesel generator
The right choice for many serious cruisers
Range up to 20nm at reduced speed
Generates power when under sail (Regeneration)
Extend range with gas or diesel generator
Never worry about clogged fuel systems or engine maintenance
Moored boats
Add a wind generator or solar panels and become energy self-sufficient
Never carry fuel, engine parts or tools back and forth to your boat
