Just what I've been looking for and with the sub and aircraft. Just need a fast tender now.

These yachts are obviously a labor of love, given this incredible product. And often times that labor is expended in such a competitive market. I read somewhere they had a buyer worked out.

Yes!!

So much wasted space on the sides that could put solar panels

It is too expensive and very slow. Unlike Tesla, Silent Yachts does not offer an extraordinary product for a slightly higher cost of ownership.

I'm curious: why wind is not sfurted on ships to produce energy through mini wind turbines?

😮 sad i will never will be abel too have one. Not even one of the small ones😢

Sounds to me like a bank leveraged a supplier in order to force the owners into selling a portion of the company and giving up control. There was probably an inside man...

This is more like an advert than news about bankruptcy.

There has been some reviews of their yachts and their projected bluewater cruising is not sustainable. They are only good for short coastal or island hops. Anything longer and you need to use diesel backup.

Old fashioned

I love Silent Yachts !!!!🩷🇲🇽

The chat voice makes it unpleasant.

The factory has no solar panels on the roof, says it all really😂😂😂

First thing they should do is stop with the constant up sale on "Environmentally Friendly" bull shit. Maybe mention it once somewhere in the middle of the pitch to customers. If it is as good as the owners say, use its features to sell it. Then the fact that it is so "quite" to run, and no loud engine noise is a huge selling point. Use those angles. I could never afford to buy one of these, but I know the people that can couldn't care less about how ecofriendly it is. Its luxury, so sell the luxury, silence, and hassle-free upkeep.

They kept making bigger and bigger boats. I wonder if they instead focused on making fewer models, maybe even just a 55’, and worked on efficiency, speed of production and price, if they could find some solvency.

I wonder if I tell the owner how much of a great guy I am he'll give me one

I believe their idea would be best suited, for now, for Lake activities. Making much smaller versions of current models. Say, 15-30 feet and cut the cost for purchase down to $50,000 or less.

I wish them luck but I dont think they are going to be able to make this work unless they can get the price way down. Those ships are massive and heavy, they've put so much luxury into them that even a cats impressive surface area is just not enough solar with current tech. Its possible to make a decent cruiser, I've seen at least 1 sailing cat on youtube that got converted to a solar power cat that gets 50ish miles a day on pure solar in the tropics. Thats plenty for island hopping and I wouldnt be surprised if a good engineer couldn't whip up an efficient design that could push 100miles a day off solar. However they are not going to hit that if they just load the ship down like a luxury hotel. not without major advancements in solar tech. A smaller ship in the 40-50ft range that's efficient and maximizes solar area would probably make a good charter ship or family live aboard. folks that are not in a paritucular hurry wouldnt mind a 50-100 mile daily range. super yachts with multi million price tags that are limited to fairly modest sustainable speeds on the solar selling point have a rather limited market audience.

Ist it possible to cruise at night?

They expend too fast in my opinion.

$21M? That is not a lot of money if you are in the market for a yacht, but the price of technology must come down for them to take from the existing market.

3:40. Yeah, this company is finished if they are banking on knowledgable people in the industry to invest large sums of money. These boats are more expensive than their competitors with diesel engines.

Wonder how many world cruising totally solar ppwered boats we'll see this year coming to the South Pacific ?

They always forget to mention the massive diesel generators that all of these “solar powered” boats have.

There yachts are too expensive. I believe $3.4 Million dollars for a 50ft example. Crazy! Solar panels are cheap, electric motors are cheap and lithium phosphate batteries are relatively cheap. No expensive diesel engines and associated mechanicals to pay for. They build their yachts wrong. Too few solar panels with no athwartships telescopic panel extensions. They could cheaply double the solar generating capacity and have much more installed battery capacity. No need for back up diesel generators at all. They build their yachts with complex under water curves when the boat is really only going to go about 4-5Kts where hydrodynamic drag is pretty minimal not deserving such time consuming complex shape.

Yes im buying 7 of them. 1 for each day of the week in the favorite colors of my wife and my 6 mistresses. Right after I sell my collection of diamond encrusted gold toilets. These watercraft are amazing and I wish the company best of luck in all their future endeavors. Please make a semi-affordable 19 foot cruiser for lakes with an electric powered trailer that uses the boat battery and thus can be towed by an even a compact car. Thank you!!!

The crypto boom is about to happen. I will buy one and so will many others

DO NOT BUY ONE … Crossing a Ocean in one of these is a nightmare, It takes 3x longer due to its inability to Travel 24 hours a day, They are slow due to night travel restrictions as they can’t recharge at night so you must tic along at 2 to 4 knots or just stop all together, Then when Dawn breaks you have to wait for the Batteries to recharge enough to carry on sailing during the day, I spent 18 weeks on one of these and talk about Stressful, They should have included a Sail. And the stupid idea of having a kite pull you along is just dumb , I organised a meet up with my Sister and her family in the Caymans, We were 6 Days late arriving and only had one day with them, The Boat i was on is now up for sale and the owners are very disappointed with it.. Almost everyone who bought one from new has sold them within a few months, Look on Google for silent Yachts for sale there are loads for sale at half the original prices, My advice stick to sails.

I think it's absolutely fantastic that somebody could invent a boat with solar pure 100% solar power amazing. I wish they would concentrate on an affordable market.. maybe that's where things could prove that would help them. I wouldn't mind spending 200 300,000 for a boat like this. I certainly don't have millions like many other people.. Their market is for the elite at this stage unfortunately, the average people can't afford this beautiful great initiative

It’s not gonna work if they continue to sell boats in the millions. I mean, what’s their comparative advantages? Being green? They are system integrators, not innovators. Anyone can build boats like that buying existing components on the market. They are not like Tesla, they don’t have r&b on the core tech of their boat(batteries, panels, efficient motors). Not a disrupter at all, will be out of the market if any big player enters the market.

Silent ? Since when are yatch s loud

They need to focus on innovating. Throwing solar on the yacht is great, but there are so many other things to do to make the boat sustainable. There are cheaper, lighter, denser batteries, and they should be using wave currents as well as the change in temp from water to air to create base load electricity so the batteries never have to rely only on solar. Kite's to help with wind generation would be great as well.

The silent 55 is my dream boat

Damnnn wtf I didn’t get rich yet hang in there imma buy one soon

1:47 here we go again with the reduced carbon footprint 🤦‍♂

All they have to do is move to México and they can continúe growing.

They did have work for years ahead... But 48 mil euro - that is like 3-5 ships not payed at all. Somehow do not understand, how can they reach such situation... Either way wishing them luck and good bussiness in the future. Btw, try investigate counterrotating toroidal propellers. Should highten the efficiency extremely with relatively understandable rise in the price of purchase and possible repairs of propeller(s).

The worst video and channel I have ever watched.👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Aquon Yachts use solar with batteries, however, use part of the energy to create hydrogen from seawater, stored in tanks that hold the equivalent of more than 100 times the power the battery banks hold. Add Veem propellers which greatly reduce cavitation and friction, you could cruise at 10 or more knots indefinitely even with a solid week of cloud cover.

So what happened to the SY 120 that was in build or the SY 80 that was also in build? I don’t think any SY 80’s were ever completed. The SY 120 they said would be finished this year but I guess not anymore.

Both batteries and solar panels are improving slowly each year. While this may not seem like much, added together these yatchs will improve quite allot over a 10 year period and will not require any major redesign, just use of the new batteries and panels as they come out.

I think solar/electric has its place in island hopping/coastal cruisers. Silent Yacht should have focused on all the customers needs. Size (36/40/45) for the entry-level, budget minded. Solar/Electric and Diesel/Electric Hybrid for longer cruising and redundancy. Lastly, Silent Yacht NEVER showed the numbers and video of deploying the kite sail. Would like to see real numbers and the time/effort to utilize this sail.

There was supposed to be a 44 I believe..but that never happened

i will buy this when i win the euro millions this week with the sub and the flying car and maybe get a hover skateboard too

yeah im going to have one before i die

🎉🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾

only 21 million? I'll take 10 of them

WEF should fund them.
