Description
The Hopyacht is a brand-new concept in sailing. This vessel is an all-electric sailing catamaran, suited for a couple who wants to do easy, coastal and protected-waters cruising. The Hopyacht offers a combination of comfort and liveability in this ultra-easy-to-handle boat under 30 feet length, with a focus on relaxation and pleasure, all with ZERO C02 emissions This diminutive multihull takes a fresh approach in several areas, notably its propulsion, both sail and power. The boat is 100 electric with twin ePropulsion Evo 6.0 pod drives that provide a 40-mile range at 4.5 knots over 10 hours, or a 16-mile range at 7 knots over about two and a half hours. Sixteen-hundred watts of solar on the coachroof feed two Balancell 14.4 kWh lithium iron phosphate batteries, and these panels are slightly elevated, not flush on the cabintop, which allows for heat to dissipate, improving efficiency, performance, and longevity.
