Sunreef Yachts is on course to premiere its new 80 Eco sailing catamaran this summer as it builds what it calls ?the world?s most advanced sustainable luxury catamaran?.

The 80 Eco features ?solar skin? developed in-house by Sunreef
Sunreef has engineered and produced a solar skin system featuring ?the world?s lightest solar cells?, according to the yard. The skin is fully integrated with the hull sides, superstructure, flybridge roof and carbon mast. The photovoltaic system will cover a total surface of 150sqm and deliver up to 34kWp.
The yacht?s wind-free propulsion will come from twin 180kW electric engines. Furthermore, while under sail, an advanced hydro-generation system will recover energy from the rotation of the two propellers, producing over 15kWh while sailing above seven knots. The energ...
