History of Silent Yachts

Silent Yachts, an innovative company known for pioneering the future of maritime navigation, was founded in 2005 by Michael and Heike Köhler in Austria. Michael, an avid lifelong sailor with a passion for sustainable energy sources, and Heike, a travel enthusiast and frequent voyage partner, sought a solution to issues of noise, smell, and fuel consumption that traditional sailing presented. Their belief that maritime travel could be both luxuriously comfortable and environmentally responsible led to the creation of Silent Yachts, a brand known globally today for their solar electric catamarans.Over the years, Silent Yachts has established itself as a frontrunner in the industry with multiple award-winning designs. Their game-changing approach to maritime travel utilises disruptive technology with cutting-edge naval architecture to produce vessels ranging from 55 feet to a recently launched 80 feet model. The company's boats are powered by solar energy, stored in batteries aboard, which makes their operations virtually silent, self-sufficient, and virtually maintenance-free, thus reinforcing their commitment to sustainability.Today, Silent Yachts is widely recognised globally with its headquarters still based in Austria, although their vessels are now built in Italy and Thailand, responding to the growing demand in those regions. Apart from these locales, Silent Yachts has extended its business footprint with sales offices in USA and Singapore and sales agents in over a dozen countries worldwide. The brand’s distinctive commitment to luxurious and sustainable maritime navigation continues to push boundaries, with plans to spearhead even more significant innovations in the future.

Where are Silent Yachts built?

Silent Yachts are built through two different shipyards depending on the model. The Silent 55 is built at the world-class shipyard of Mazarin German Yachts which also has a production site located in China. For over 70 years, Mazarin has been a leader in quality yacht construction with over 400 yachts delivered. Mazarin are experts in innovative construction processes that are able to produce light weight yachts.

The Silent 64 and Silent 80 are produced at the Italian-based shipyard Consorzio Navale which is a prestigous consoritum of builders and sub-contractors in the industry. The group has serviced many of the major Italian yacht brands such as Ferretti Yachts and Riva Yachts . Additionally, the Silent Yachts 80 features styling and design by Marco Casali and naval architecture by Insenaval.

Are Silent Yachts really completely solar-powered?

The short answer is yes. Owners can choose to go 100% solar-powered or install diesel engines should higher speeds want to be achieved over longer distances. Silent Yachts can cruise up to 100 miles per day by power acquired through its solar panels. Every day the solar panels are able to generate more power than the total consumption needed for propulsion at cruising speeds plus powering all of the appliances on board. 

How does the solar power work? 

The Silent Yachts power system feeds the electric propulsion of the power cat and all of the energy it needs to run the A/C, refrigerators, and other household appliances. Light-weight lithium batteries provide an ample amount of energy for everything on board. The lithium batteries used in Silent Yachts are the most expensive ones on the market, but also the most reliable, safe, and have the longest life span.

Solar panels are integrated to the roof of the flybridge hardtop sections instead of just being bolted on top, resulting in no wind load or resistance againest them. Below is a video explaining how the system functions and operates back when Silent Yachts were originally called "Solar Wave":

Who is the team behind Silent Yachts?

Heike and Michael Kohler have sent almost their entire lives on a boat. After more than two decades of using various boats, cruisers, and sailboats on multiple oceans, they became dedicated to finding a better energy source for the propulsion of yachts. Between the years of 2005 and 2009, Heike and Michael tested a number of a multitude of various alternative energy sources. In 2009, SolarWave 46 was launched as a proof of concept for their design. While there are many boats and yachts built that use solar power in some fashion, the Solarwave 46 was the first ocean-going yacht to use solar energy to power everything on board from engines to appliances.

What else is different about how Silent Yachts are built?

Certainly the solar-powered engines and generators are the distinguishing characteristic, but there are a lot of other features that make each Silent Yacht unique. For example, the molds were created using a CNC-milling machine that is able to contruct particular shapes for an optimized design. The materials used in the hull include a carbon compositie that is then resin-infused for a light-weight, but very strong platform. Every hull is fully insulated and the long-term durability is exceptional thanks to the high-quality resin used in the infusion process.

What propulsion systems are recommended by Silent Yachts?

Silent Yachts recommends the 2 x 135 engines as the best solution. If the owner is making frequest trips from Point A to B (Say Miami to the Bahamas for example) the faster hybrid is recommended. The main differentiator here is cruising speed. If the owner is living on the yacht for an extended period of time, rarely pushes the engines to top speeds, and stays below 12 knots, then the E-Power is recommended.

When the generator is running, does the 100Kw go to charging the batteries (which run the 250 Kw e-Motors) or directly to the e-Motors?

All of the enery consumers and producers are connected to the bus bar. If there happens to be more power produced than consumed, the excess power goes to re-charge the batteries. If for some reason more power is required than what is produced, the needed power comes from the lithium batteries.

What is the sustained speed if both 100 Kw generators are running?

This answer really depends upon sea condition and the weight of the boat (for example components, additional equipment, water toys, etc.). The sustained speed on average though is between 12 and 14 knots, 10 knots with one generator running. It is possible to cruise at 10 knots without a generator running when using the Solar E-Power.

Review: Silent 55, the extraordinary solar powered yacht

• January 18, 2019

Silent Yachts is tapping into the solar zeitgeist and creating a new meaning for the term ‘powercat’.  Sam Fortescue reports

There is a slow, silent revolution under way in the yachting world. It is a revolution that is introducing tonnes of lithium and a sprinkling of silicon to the spec list of new boats. Holding out the promise of silent mobility, plus limitless domestic power on board, it made a big splash at the last Cannes Festival of Yachting – not least thanks to the new Silent 55 catamaran which debuted there.

From the pontoon side, the Silent 55 looks like a typical modern catamaran, with a big coachroof studded with windows and a flybridge helm. Except there’s no mast. Now, bear with me here. I realise that this is a sailing magazine, but we will shortly get back to more familiar territory. The unique qualities of this catamaran only become apparent from up top, where an expanse of solar panels stretches away fore and aft, embedded into the coachroof. The hard top itself carries yet more panels, and can be folded down flush to give an unshaded solar array of 49m2. During the heat of a summer day in the Med, this is capable of generating 10kW of power and up to around 60kWh in the course of the day.

But to make a solar system work in reality, Köhler had to go back to the drawing board on yacht design. The saloon and hulls have extra thermal insulation to keep air-con losses down, and the use of carbon and aramid in key areas helps reduce the overall weight to a decent 17 tonnes (a Lagoon 52 weighs 22.5 tonnes). He has tried to keep windows out of the direct sun with long overhangs and in contrast to the Lagoon’s 12 deck hatches, the Silent 55 has just two.

Holistic design

On the other hand, it has lots of opening windows, to allow a natural draught to do its job. “It’s a holistic approach – you can’t take the batteries and the drivetrain and drop it into another boat.”

Of course, using the propulsion system quickly takes its toll of the boat’s 140kW battery bank. The model on display at Cannes had two 135kW motors, giving you just half an hour of silent motoring flat-out, albeit at a top speed of over 20 knots. More reasonable 30kW engines and a single-digit speed give you greater range. Nonetheless, the electric drive alone isn’t going to allow you to outrun a storm, or race home after a day at anchor, so the boat is designed to work with a generator hidden in the heavily insulated transom of its starboard hull. At cruising speed of around 5-6 knots, Köhler says there is rarely any need to use the generator, citing an owner who has just emailed him triumphantly about a second year totally generator-free. “In the end, you have to compare it to the performance of a sailing boat,” Köhler says. “It is as fast as a sailing boat in similar conditions – after all, there is no wind without sun.” He went so far as to tell me during the sea trial in Palma, Mallorca, that he believed the majority of sailors would happily dispense with the hassle of sails and a rig if only they could enjoy silent motoring and anchoring. “As soon as people realise the incredible concept of this boat, they won’t understand why they ever did anything else.”

The market does not seem to agree with him – yet. Sales of the boat have been good – they have already sold six, five of which are already in the water. But of those, four customers have taken the sail option, which means planting a 19.7m tall mast complete with boom and rigging slap bang in the middle of the coachroof solar array. “I was a bit amazed,” Köhler admits. “The shade from the rig reduces the energy generated by the solar area, while it costs more and is heavier, so consumes more fuel. Maybe it is for optical reasons.” In fact, the shade of the rig slashes the average yield of the solar panels in half. In the Med, that means around 30kWh per day. But perhaps it figures. The typical profile of buyers is an environmentalist who has a Tesla electric car and is “an early adopter who likes to have things before others”. And at low speeds, with modest use of the air-con, the reduced energy generation should still cover daily consumption.

The performance under sail should be reasonable because of the lightweight build of the boat, its broad 8.47m beam and stub keels added to each hull. Control lines are led back via conduits in the coachroof to the flybridge helm station, to make single-handing under sail a possibility.

More interesting, I think, is a sort of halfway-house option using a kite rig. This optimises the performance of the solar panels and gives plenty of propulsion. On the smaller 55 and the 64, Silent Yachts currently recommends a 19m2 kite that costs around €25,000 – a fraction of the cost of a new mast, boom, shrouds and sails. “The sail automatically makes a figure of eight above the boat, and you can steer it with a joystick or an app on an android phone,” Köhler explains. “It can propel the 55 at up to 6 knots, even in light winds.” Perfect for an Atlantic crossing, then.

For the bigger Silent 79, which will hit the water in the summer, a commercial grade Sky Sail system needs to be used – a smaller version of the ones used on cargo ships. This kite can propel the boat at ten knots, but it costs more than ten times as much as its smaller cousin. Both are capable of pulling the boat upwind. So far, so new. But outside the novel energy and propulsion system, the Silent 55 aims to do what many other cruising catamarans are trying to achieve. “Most of our clients order for circumnavigation and long-term cruising,” Köhler says. So the boat is aimed to be as comfortable and capable as possible with watermakers, TVs and an induction hob that all capitalise on the boat’s abundant energy. A flexible configuration allows owners the choice 
of between three and six cabins – the latter designed for charter. The owner’s cabin lies forward of the saloon, under the windows of the coachroof, which provide magnificent views and abundant natural light. There’s a walk-around bed and steps down into the starboard hull give access to an en-suite shower room and heads.

In my view, the best cabin lies aft of this, accessed in the traditional manner down steps out of the saloon. The king-sized bed lies athwartships and the shower is larger than that of the master cabin. There’s more space down here, better headroom and still plenty of light courtesy of the many hull lights.

When I had the chance to sea trial the Silent 55, albeit in motorboat format, I jumped at it. It was a contrary autumn day on Mallorca with 15 knots breeze – just a shame, then, that this wasn’t one of the sailing configured versions.

To start with, getting on board is made really easy courtesy of deep boarding platforms on the skirts. She feels rather square because of that vast, glazed saloon with its deep overhang, and perhaps because of the utilitarian nature of the hard top, which is really about supporting more solar panels. Nevertheless, the side decks are broad and uncluttered. The space up top is designed to concertina down flat, hence the hydraulic rams, fold-down seat back and lowering console. It makes a great sailing position, though, with all round visibility, and is also perfect for sundowners at anchor. When the rain comes down, this feels quite exposed, but there is a fully sheltered helm at the front of the saloon, and it is also possible to drive the boat from anywhere using a tablet thanks to smart electronics. Under power, the handling is superb. The quietness of the motors is astonishing, and I gather they’ll be inaudible on the next boat, which will do away with the gearbox. Even in the aft cabins, directly above the motors, there is no more than a distant hum. The boat responds instantly to the power and the wind seemed to have no impact at all. As with any propulsion system, the power consumption jumps as you pile on the speed – it was sobering to see. At 6 knots, both motors drew 10kW but at 8 knots it was closer to 30kW. I liked the huge saloon with its raised table for 360º views. And the sliding door and window gives great access aft, connecting the saloon and cockpit in fine conditions. The finish was smart and in muted tones, feeling more Scandinavian than German.

Intriguingly, at least it seems to me, Köhler has tapped into something with the concept behind Silent Yachts – but not entirely for the reasons that he expected. Buyers are opting for the sail or kite versions of the boat because they want a comfortable wind-powered craft with abundant, quiet energy on tap. It brings a whole new meaning to the 
term ‘powercat’

Factors That Affect Silent Yacht Prices

The cost of a silent yacht can vary greatly depending on a number of factors, including size, features, design, and the materials used.

Size is the most obvious factor, as larger yachts naturally cost more than smaller ones.

Depending on the manufacturer, a silent yacht can range from as small as 30 feet to as large as 150 feet or more.

The larger the yacht, the more space and amenities it will have, as well as the more expensive it will be.

Aside from size, features can also affect the price of a silent yacht.

Some features that can be included are solar panels, electric motors, advanced navigation systems, comfortable seating, and more.

The more a silent yacht is equipped with, the more it will cost.

The design of the yacht is also an important factor.

Most silent yachts are designed to be aesthetically pleasing, with sleek lines and modern features.

This makes them stand out in the crowd, but also increases the cost.

Finally, the materials used to build a silent yacht can also affect the price.

Yachts are typically made from aluminum or fiberglass, with aluminum typically being the more expensive option.

Additionally, the type of wood used in the interior can add to the cost of the yacht.

Typical Silent Yacht Prices

Silent yachts are truly revolutionary vessels, offering luxury, eco-friendliness, and unparalleled peace and quiet.

But these impressive vessels come with a price tag.

The cost of a silent yacht will vary depending on size and features, but typically range anywhere from $1.

5 million to $3 million or more.

At the lower end of the price range, you can expect to find some of the basic models of silent yachts, ranging from 25 to 50 feet in length.

These tend to be more basic models, with fewer features and amenities, though they still offer all the same benefits of a silent yacht.

At the higher end of the price range, you can expect to find much larger and more luxurious models of silent yachts, ranging from 50 to 100 feet in length.

These yachts come with all the bells and whistles, from high-end furnishings and appliances to the latest in solar and electric power technology.

Of course, there are also plenty of options in between these two extremes.

Silent yacht prices can vary widely depending on the size, features, and amenities of the yacht.

For example, a 50-foot yacht with basic amenities may cost around $2 million, while a 50-foot yacht with all the bells and whistles may cost upward of $3 million.

It’s also important to take into account the cost of maintaining a silent yacht.

Depending on the size and features of the yacht, the cost of maintaining it can range from several hundred to several thousand dollars a month.

Additionally, those who purchase a silent yacht should factor in the cost of insurance and other fees associated with owning a boat.

Ultimately, the cost of a silent yacht varies depending on size and features, but prices typically range from $1.

Additional Costs and Services

When it comes to silent yacht prices, it is important to remember that the initial purchase price is just the beginning.

In addition to the actual cost of the yacht, there are many other expenses associated with owning and operating a silent yacht.

Maintenance fees, fuel costs, dockage, and crew costs all add up and must be taken into consideration when budgeting for a silent yacht.

Maintenance fees for silent yachts vary depending on the size and model of the yacht, as well as the frequency and type of maintenance required.

Generally, basic maintenance costs range from $2,000 to $5,000 per month, while more extensive maintenance can cost up to $10,000 per month.

Fuel costs are also an important factor to consider when budgeting for a silent yacht.

Since silent yachts are powered by solar energy, there is no need for fuel, but some models may require a backup generator for nighttime use.

If a generator is needed, fuel costs can range from $500 to $2,000 per month, depending on the size and type of generator.

Dockage fees will also vary depending on the marina and the size of the yacht.

Fees typically range from $500 to $1,500 per month for a small to midsize yacht, and can go up to $3,000 or more for a larger vessel.

Additionally, many marinas charge a one-time setup fee of $500 or more.

Finally, if you plan to hire a crew, you will need to factor in the cost of the crews wages and benefits.

Depending on the experience and qualifications of the crew, wages can range from $2,000 to $10,000 per month.

In summary, while the initial cost of a silent yacht can range from $1.

5 million to $3 million or more, there are many additional costs associated with owning and operating one of these vessels.

From maintenance and fuel costs to dockage fees and crew wages, silent yacht owners must consider all of these expenses when budgeting for their yacht.

Weighing less than 200 pounds, the ST400 can be easily deployed and retrieved by the mothership. If that’s a Silent 60, for instance, the tender can be lifted out of the water using the 60-footer’s hydraulic bathing platform. 

In addition, Silent’s founder and CEO Michael Köhler says the ST400 is one of the most efficient electric tenders on the market. Owners can pick between inboard propulsion in the form of a 20kW electric waterjet or an outboard motor good for either 20kW or 30kW. The range-topper can hit 20 knots at full tilt. 

Battery capacity is also your choice. The tender can be fitted with a standard 16kWh lithium battery or an upgraded 20kWh unit for more range. You can expect at least two hours of drive time when cruising at 10 knots. Fast charging can also replenish the battery in just 2.5 hours.

Onboard, the tender features a central console and intuitive controls, including a throttle, a wheel and a display showing all the vitals. There is seating for six and the yard says passengers will enjoy a dry ride even at speed. 

The best part? Silent is already working on a larger, 17-foot electric tender to pair with the Silent 80. “This has been a repeated request from our owners—and one that we are delighted to respond to,” Köhler adds.

New in-build Silent 120 Explorer to offer onboard aircraft and submarine

Austrian solar catamaran builder Silent-Yachts has announced a collaboration with aerospace engineers VRCO and U-Boat Worx that will see its new 36.7-metre Silent 120 Explorer catamaran offered with the option of an aircraft and submarine.

The new superyacht project, which is due to hit the water in 2024, has been designed with eco-friendly expedition in mind. The yacht will be fitted with solar panels that can power 40kWp of energy, enough for the yacht's hotel mode and with the capacity to recharge an electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft as well as a U-Boat Worx NEMO submarine. The solar panels can also slide outboard port and starboard to reveal a touch-and-go landing pad across the Explorer’s 13.85-metre beam.

“The trend is for bigger yachts and more luxury, more comfort, more water toys and more possibilities,” said Michael Köhler, founder and CEO of Silent-Yachts . “In the Silent 120 Explorer we designed a boat that is bigger in volume although not in length, and bigger gives the opportunity to store more of these toys. “We build catamarans, which means more beam and more space,” he added.

“We also build our boats with solar power and electric propulsion, and that means we don’t have to give a lot of space to an engine room, which means we gain room for things like a gym or extra tender storage. Finally, the extra beam of the catamaran form means the roof can accommodate an eVTOL aircraft. We can plug it in on board and it will be recharged in a couple of hours.

The aircraft will offer transportation for up to four and includes detection and avoidance technology, a ballistic parachute and low-altitude crash prevention systems. The technology is due for certification in 2024.

Meanwhile, the U-Boat Worx NEMO submarine offers diving to 100-metre depths for two people in an all-electric package whose footprint is smaller than two jet skis. It can offer eight hours of autonomy and positive buoyancy for automatic resurfacing at three knots.

Designed by Marco Casali , the multihull model started life as the Silent 100 but has since been extended by around six metres. Thee new Silent 120 Explorer has an impressive interior volume of 499GT, providing plenty of space for owners to make their own. Combined, the interior and exterior offer 900 square metres of space to unwind.

800kW lithium-ion batteries drive highly efficient 340kW e-motors, giving unlimited cruising potential. A cruising speed of eight knots is anticipated, while she is expected to reach top speeds of 16 knots.

While headquarters are in Austria, the Silent 120 is currently under construction in Turkey where the yard is also working on the 25-metre Silent VisionF 82. Part of a unique collaboration with Turkey’s VisionF Yachts, these models are built in aluminium, with four currently under construction.

Silent Yachts – Noiseless Limitless Cruising Catamarans

Solar power catamarans...ingenious and real.

Imagine leaving no footprint except those in the sand on faraway beaches as you silently cruise. With these solar catamarans, it’s possible! We covered these amazing solar-electric yachts back when they were mere concepts.

The Austrian-based solar catamaran producer drew stronger interest after the Silent 55 earned the Best of Boats Awards 2019 in “Boat for Travel” being “suitable for long distance travels with all amendments to live on board permanently, adapted for both inland waters and the tough conditions at sea.” Amazing results for where electric-solar catamarans were only a year or so before.

Silent Yachts began delivery of the Silent 55 in 2019 and in 2020, during a global pandemic, sold six Silent 80 catamarans (starting from $4.6 million). Construction in Ancona, Italy, was slightly delayed due to COVID19 closure of 2 of the 4 factories, but the shipbuilder continues with delivery of these amazing catamarans as well as their evolution. At the end of 2020, Silent Yachts had a dozen luxury electric catamarans in production from 55′ to 80′ at a starting price of $1.8 million.

After these successes, designer Marco Casali of Too-Design continued innovating crafting a Loft version of the Silent 80 to excite solar catamaran enthusiasts.

Founder and CEO, Michael Köhler, birthed the concept. Interior and exterior designs are by Marco Casali of Too-Design with Amedeo Migali of MICAD in charge of naval architecture.

The Silent 80 with its silent electric propulsion, has unlimited range; no noise or fumes. Seventy solar panels, electric motors, and lithium batteries (used by Tesla) have been incorporated into the design to make it most efficient while maintaining the overall balance in shape. If you want to know more in depth on this efficiency, read this excellent article on Silent Yachts’ engine, battery configuration, and power management .

All components are virtually free of maintenance which makes the running-costs much lower than that of a comparable conventionally powered catamaran. The Silent Yacht is powered by electric motors and has a cruising-speed of 6-8 knots, and maximum speed is 10 knots. Without an engine room, the Silent 80 has enough space for a 4.5 meter tender, and gyrocopter!

Success has not stopped this solar catamaran designer from striving for bigger and better ideas. Recently Silent Yachts Silent announced its plan to build catamarans in collaboration with Volkswagen, powered by VW electric drive matrix (MEB). The catamaran ranges will be designed by VW subsidiary, SEAT’s Cupra brand. Auto and marine manufacturers joining forces have shown success before when BMW teamed up with Torqeedo for outboard engines, so it will be interesting to watch.

High Cost of Solar Catamarans Debunked

As with any new paradigm, the skeptics have loud voices during early introduction of new concepts. And solar-electric catamarans are no different. As excited as we are about this, we must confess our healthy skepticism is still alive. But we recently read an interesting article that compares the Silent 80 to the Lagoon Seventy8 . It points out that because operation and maintenance costs are so low that only a few years of ownership negate the higher purchase price of the Silent 80.

It’s actually quite a tempting proposition to enjoy all the comforts and necessities that requires lots of power aboard without the smell, roar, and Earth-damaging emissions of diesel generators. And eliminating the dangers and inconvenient refills of the propane cooker in the galley is another reason to give a second and a third look at these new solar catamarans.

Read on for pictures and more details of these solar-powered cats with lots of options including hybrid diesel operations and and a true “sail” option.
