Wind is Back! World's First Wind-Assisted Diesel-Electric Expedition Yacht
from Xplorer Yachts | Expedition Yacht Design, Technology & Innovation · host Paul Madden
Xplorer Yachts™ is building the first wind-assisted diesel-electric hybrid expedition yacht. This vessel is based upon an existing, ocean-proven wind-assisted commercial vessel that has already achieved 30% fuel savings on Trans-Atlantic passages. It's class-approved OceanWing sail system is the top performing sail system currently being implemented on commercial ships. This hull platform can be built from 95m to 105m / 295 ft to 345 ft and be fitted out for 12-36 guests with a completely customized interior. Our time-tested business model utilizes commercial shipyards for the hull and systems build, while the interior fabrication and fit-out will take place in a yacht finishing facility.
