Review Of The Silent 60 sea trial quiet, spacious, self-charging Quiet, roomy, aesthetically and self-charging

It seems more like you've entered a huge, luxurious beach home than stepped on a boat that will take you out on the water when you first go aboard for the magnificent Silent 60 sea trial. Everything is light, airy, and expansive.

With the aesthetically sliding doors opening to reveal a beautiful structure, a little breeze enters the main deck salon, giving the impression that you are fully outside. The wraparound windows give the panoramic vista.

Everything about this beautiful structure is designed to give you maximum comfort, satisfaction and enjoyment. What’s more, you get to ride with clear blue skies, wind in your face, and a magnificent water body to explore. Taking a stroll through Fort Lauderdale, it is a beautiful summer day to sail in.

Their most current front exit model, the Silent 60, is what we will be using today. The firm also has shipyards all over Europe Including; Italy, Austria, and Turkey. This particular sailboat was crafted in Thailand, and she will soon be sailing up the coastline to her new owner and residence in the New England region.

Captain Kyle Miller is in charge of that trip, today he is taking us on an Intracoastal Waterway sail with Juliana Miguel, an internal designer at Silent Yachts, and Philip Bell, the US Sales Director. There is the eagerness to demonstrate the capabilities of the Silent 60. And we are all excited to go through it.

The progenitor of Solar-powered boats

The boat is a reference point for solar-powered boating. Heike and Michael Köhler, experienced sailors and committed environmentalists, founded the company in 2004. Over the next half a decade, they measured the amount of energy produced and used on each trip, no matter how short or long, to figure out the best combination for electric propulsion with an entirely onboard energy supply.

After traveling 15,000 nautical miles in quest of information, they were prepared to construct their first entirely solar-powered, self-sufficient bluewater catamaran, the Solarwave 46. It was then time to put the boat through another half a decade of testing on the European rivers, the Black Sea, the Aegean, and the fabled Mediterranean.

Battery capacity of 225 kWh, two 250 kW motors

The first Silent-Yachts catamarans that Captain Miller skippered were at the start of 2019 when he sailed again from the Bahamas to Florida. His boating expertise informs the company's design advancements. “There are noticeable changes to the aesthetic and design of the boat "You can clearly see and feel the improvements in every boat after that 64," he claims. The greatest boat Silent-Yachts has ever constructed, in my view, and unquestionably the best I have ever commanded.
