Having a self-sufficient boat isn’t negotiable for us. Because we spend weeks and sometimes months away from civilization. So, managing our resources is a must and we’re always looking for better ways to do so. And that is exactly where Hybrid Electric comes in.
It’s all about drastically increasing our range, efficiency, redundancy and a whole lot more. Any manufacturer who isn’t installing a similar system will. Because Parallel Hybrid motors have all the benefits of both electric and diesel propulsion but with even more functionality…like hydrogeneration. This system is one of the big reasons we were drawn to HH Catamarans.
It’s a simple system but it has many modes and that is why we have dedicated an entire video to our hybrid electric set up. So, if you’ve been curious about what it is, how it works or who it’s for…this one is for you.

WE’RE JASON AND NIKKI WYNN. A couple of modern-day documentarians, perpetual travelers, and seekers of tall tales.
We’ve been chasing our curiosity around the world on wheels and keels since 2011. Why? Because curiosity is the key to unlocking life. It pushes us outside our comfort zone, softens our assumptions, and helps us embrace the great unknown. The more we let our curiosity lead the way, the more we discover about ourselves and the world around us.
Our home is also our transportation and we spend weeks away from civilization and sometimes land. Self-reliance and living a sustainable lifestyle are a must. It's all about managing our resources and we’re always looking for new and better ways to do so.
We've lived off the grid for over 10 years now in everything from a Van to RV to a Sailboat. And over time we have learned a lot about renewable energy, creating safe drinking water, and managing our waste.
Our journey is ever-evolving but the mission remains the same: #CultivateCuriosity

So many Curious viewers! The most common question seems to be "Great system, but can you get it serviced anywhere in the world?" and the answer is definitely yes! The diesel engine is a fairly simple marinized Kubota engine, so parts should be readily available and any diesel mechanic worth their salt should be able to fix anything Jason can't. The electric motor is also super simple, and HH techs will be able to remotely log in to the system from anywhere in the world for troubleshooting and diagnostics. Hope that satisfies your "curiosity"!

Thanks for your channel. A question, everything being digital, are you worried about lightening strikes or any electrical failures?
Hello Jason and Nikki, with so many options available, I'm wondering if the Yanmar engine is available?
The amps are what kills you, not the volts. That was very dangerous comment coming from the factory rep.
Also look into a 4 blade prop vs. a 3 blade. 4blade require more torque, but that's what electric motors do thus 4blade props are more efficient and more responsive than three.
@@yewtuber Touching a million amps at 1 volt probably won't kill you because it's not enough voltage to break down skin and make it conduct. It takes more than say 50 volts to make skin conduct, which is why low voltage systems are under 50 volts.
Also it turns out that water, even seawater are NOT very conductive, so the risk of electrocution from water + electricity is not a great as people think.
When the drive belt from the prop shaft to the motor/generator fails you will have to disconnect the prop shaft flex coupling and push the shaft aft to replace the drive belt. While this is not that difficult it could be easier. You could put a spare belt or two around the prop shaft during install and zip tie them into a safe position clear of any moving parts. Then when the belt fails just slide a new one forward and onto the pulleys. You will only need to slacken the belt tensioner and then retighten it with no need to disconnect the prop shaft. This could be a plus if the belt fails at sea under difficult conditions. Thanks for showing us your beautiful new boat. Happy sailing.
Yes, but belts also tend to be highly reliable. More reliable than shafts, gears, universal joints, etc.
That is a very good idea.
Excellent Ideas
@@LoanwordEggcorn Uh huh, so that's the reason they use timing chains and gears in engines instead of belts right? Or shaft drive transmissions instead of belt-drive ones?
@jackwickman2403 Good eye and nice catch. And yes, HH delivers the boat with a spare zip tied exactly as you described. You get the gold star this week!
Curious Minion
Sixth way to propell: perpetual motion configuration. Run one motor off the battery bank. Put the other motor into regen mode, and recharge the batteries. No wind? No fuel? No problem!! ;-) 😉😉
It's truly an incredible advancement for the marine industry, one that we are STOKED to be a part of! Electric sailboats are the future!
Hey - Get them to put two extra belts on each motor and zip tie them out of the way now as they are probably very difficult to replace the belts later. That way you just cut off old belt and slip new belt in place. I bet it is very hard to get a new belt around the prop shaft once mounted in engine room.
Yes, that is what HH does. Ready to go!
This architect just gave the best description of how this system works. B. R. A. V. O. ‼️
That young man is one intelligent person!
Nice to see Jason hosting and excited about something. It’s a beautiful boat and I’m excited for you. Can’t wait for the full boat tour!
wait until they get a dishwasher. Jason will be beyond EXCITED!
@@TheCharlesLuu I donated! Cant wait :)
@@TheCharlesLuu yeah... But I'm gonna miss the "but first, Jason has to do the dishes" comments. Lol
As an engineer with a career in automation, I'm impressed, and also recognize that you two will really need to learn these systems. I'm confident you can learn to troubleshoot and repair, but it sounds like it's going to be a whole new class of debug from what you had before.
But Wynns have a very intimate understanding of the entire system.
I've been critical of Jason's lack of mechanical knowledge. That being said, he has self educated about not just mechanics but also system design.
The diesel is very uncomplicated, and the electric motor itself is also very simple. Techs will be able to access the system via WiFi, so the techs at HH will be able to help troubleshoot from anywhere in the world.
Curious Minion
Jason has had a Supreme learning curve from his day of Rving.
I had doubts for this duo as they started there lessons on basic boating and sailing.
To the Wynns, " You have done well Pilgram"
Much respect... and YES you are building the vessel of my dreams of 25 years ago.
The electronics and controllers will be the problem area. You're right, the diesel and electric motors are simple. But the electronic and software "glue" can make it all go wrong-- and unless you have access to the code to debug, it will be a challenge.
I think that is the beauty of this system it is very simple mechanically and can be run fully analog if needed.
That's a really impressive system
Really efficient and at the same time built with kit that is easily worked on by a normal mechanic. Love the fact that the engine doesn't have electronics on it that can only be worked by a dealer.
The down side is what are you leaving on the table in terms of power and fuel efficiency but not going common rail. The software to diagnose those system , while proprietary is usually available somewhere for those willing to search.
True, but the pressure needed for the common rail system is high enough to amputate a finger if you don't know what you're doing when you service it. For owner service and repair & parts availability in remote areas, I'll take the simpler system & give up a little power. Especially when Nikki and Jason plan to rely on the electric motor as much as possible.
Curious Minion
What is common rail?
@@chrismulvey49 Common rail diesels use a high pressure pump (30k psi?) feeding a common rail (pipe) with solenoid operated injectors controlled by an ecu to spray the fuel into the cylinders. Direct injection diesels use a relatively low pressure mechanical pump/injector each fed by separate fuel lines, usually driven by the camshaft.
@@fredbugden3511 One problem with common rail diesels on blue water boat is their need for very clean diesel. So you need some installation (filters) to make sure that what you are feeding into the high pressure pump is best quality. One more system that needs maintenance, spare parts a.s.o. On a boat moved 95 % by the wind I don't see the advantage of having a common rail engine.
Most of the information went way over my head, but redundancy really struck me. This, coming from someone who has 5 different ways to make coffee in her trailer. 😊 AND I never have to worry about getting stuck in the middle of the ocean like you two do. Good peace of mind. ❤️❤️
There's no way to get stuck in the middle of the ocean
Same system as used on WWII submarines as there were called Diesel/Electrical Boats. A German sub was captured (U505), as it's batteries were "Flat", had no power thus have to surface and surrender. Did the same trick, as it was being towed by the Americans after capture, the props were spinning charging the battery's bring it back to life. It is now in a museum in Chicago..
That means it's not the same system. This system is a parallel hybrid where either or both the diesel or electric can move the boat independently. In that way it has 2 way failover redundancy. Any one system can fail and the boat can still move.
If the sub could not move due to discharged batteries, then the sub was a serial hybrid where the combustion engine acted as a generator to charge the battery and the Diesel could not turn the prop directly. It's also possible the diesel had a problem or ran out of fuel and could not start.
@@LoanwordEggcorn It was kept down due to depth charges, batteries ran out, that was it. U505 was surrounded and had no were to go. The engines were started with compressed air. The WWII subs engines were NOT connected to the prop shaft, but to a generator which charged the batteries, OR powered the shaft motors directly. OR full motors or Full battery charge. The entire sub was controlled by "Maneuvering" a small room maned by 2-3 people that controlled the flow of current...Quite the setup. To me the similarity's were striking.
@@MrDonJBerg Thanks. If the Diesel can turn the shaft directly, then it's a parallel hybrid.
@@LoanwordEggcorn The Diesel does NOT turn the shaft directly but turns a generator which powers a motor which turns the shaft...
Dam guys that was the best understanding of a system that makes sense on all points... nice
Always a good day when you post a new video! Xox
wow, looks like a great system, 1 thing not mentioned is that most trains since 1913 are all diesel-electric, As early as 1913, an experimental 60-horsepower diesel-electric railcar appeared in Sweden. About 30 cars of this type, but with more powerful, 150-horsepower engines, soon went into service in Sweden, Denmark, France, and Tunisia.
Wow, I think you really lucked out with the engineering talent at Hh. In a way, I think very talented engineers are attracted to challenging forward thinking projects, and that has happened here. At a legacy boat manufacturer, I suspect your talented engineer would be stifled by older engineers who just want to do it the “way they know works”. I am really excited to see all this tech come together.
What an amazing boat, the HH 44… Can’t wait to see you sailing her in your future videos!
Jason looked like a kid who just woke up on Christmas morning and saw all the presents under the tree with his name on them! I will have to watch a few times just to understand it all. Looking forward to seeing it in action.
I've said it before you two do a fantastic job with your channel and editing. Super duper ❤🙏😎
I’ve been doing Building Automation for over 27 years and my concern is leading edge tech vs “bleeding edge” tech. There are many interconnected systems that concern me with how well they will hold up in a marine environment. But this is amazing stuff when it is working right. I sincerely hope it gives you decades of worry free service!
At least it's a simple bolt-on generator/motor that presumably can be isolated mechanically if it fails. And a simple gearbox for the engine using existing tech. I've seen variable pitch props driven electrically to optimise regen efficiency, which seems great but again prone to failure, potentially. And this parallel system wins hands down for redundancy IMO.
It's been in production for over 15 years, so it's not leading tech or bleeding tech really...
What impressed me is that they are repurposing a well established system used for years on river boats. Just looking at it, it looks simple. What is more ubiquitous than a Kubota diesel or a belt drive motor generator? They have some new software to perfect, but that can be updated wirelessly.
The drive system looks cool. I love the idea of running quietly on the electric motor for 2 or 3 miles before hoisting sails or, vice versa, dropping sails and quietly entering the anchorage or marina. Also great for fast charging the big LiFePo4 battery bank from empty to full in 2 hours if necessary.
And the key thing is that all of the electrical energy used to motor can be recharged simply by sailing. So motoring becomes WIND POWERED. This is working in harmony with nature MUCH better than burning fossil fuels.
In reality, most people with electric drive sailboats use the motor to get away from the dock/anchorage, raise the sails, then use the sails to recharge the battery for a while by hydrogenerating. After charging enough, the motor acting as a generator is disengaged while under sail. Coming back to dock or anchor, the electric drive is used to motor again.
And battery can be recharged by solar, shore power, etc.
One should always consider the worst case scenario which in the case of this system would be thermal runaway from the Lithium batteries. A fire like that would be impossible to extinguish at sea (on land too). Boeing solved the problem on the B787 by encasing their lithium batteries in a fire and heatproof steel casing after several serious incidents that grounded the aircraft. Are your batteries in a steel (or other material) protective casing?
Not if the batteries are LFP.
Can you imagine that RVing turned into this sophisticated catamaran? Wow!
I love the design ethos of this HH. The engineering fundamentals kept simple & accessible with an elegant hybrid interface. Excited to see the testing etc.
Great job HH, my fantasy yacht league ties you guys & Outremere as top choice!
Self regenerating power bank capabilities - very cool!
So!.... I was REALLY concerned about how much solar you have was really NEVER going to get you to a FULL state in your huge battery bank..... NOW I get it, with this system, you'll be sailing almost forever with VERY little to ZERO use of any fossil fuels whatsoever. This means, NO MORE carrying all those big HEAVY diesel cans when you go ashore, which ALSO means, NO need to even HAVE those big cans for your diesel storage. Man, what an IMPRESSIVE system! I'm SOOOOOO HAPPY for you and Nikki!!!!
I didn't understand most of it, but it is nice to see Jason so excited!
It's really not unlearnable technology.
In fact, it's fairly simplistic.
Find someone that can verbalize it is a bigger challenge than deploying the design.
Wait till they install the dishwasher.
It is worth pointing out that these hybrid units are not proprietary to HH but could theoretically be retrofitted to existing boats.
Lots of comments from folks who have not designed, built and sailed an electric boat for years.
I have.
My Pearson 36 had a similar 10kw brushless electric motor and in my opinion, the HH44 setup is sized right, practical and functional. Far superior compared with my DIY system.
In short, I have no doubt that it will work & Jason, you are going to love this propulsion system!!!
You have 2 generators on board. You have 2 engines and 2 motors - each capable of moving the boat on their own. I know of no other boat with such redundancy.
Just one question: how to change the belt? I know it lasts a long time (mine went over a year with heavy usage). Must be a coupler you can disconnect to pull the belt off the shaft.
Good eye. HH delivers the boat with a spare belt already inside the loop & zip-tied out of harms' way. That lets you wait for controlled conditions to install another spare for the next time.
Curious Minion
Those HH engineers are sharp!
Again, I doubt you’ll need the spare belt in an emergency, but good to know it’s there.
"That was a well thought lucid explanation of all the GO parts on the boat". Glad there isn't a quiz later....LOL Lots of wicked cool stuff!!
A little My Cousin Vinny line stolen there....
Looks like a great system. I'm wondering how trouble shooting will go once you get away from the dock. During electrical storms can you isolate your electrical components to keep them from damage, and if the controls damage can you limp in manually ? Great video today.
Ray
We were just at Ft. McCalister GA where the current runs at 4 or 5 knots easy. You could anchor in the river there and generate in both directions with the tide coming in or out using the hydro regeneration mode and wouldn't really need anything else. The battery would keep you going through the slack tide. Very cool! Amazing there isn't hydroelectric on all of these tidal rivers for the towns along them. What a missed opportunity.
Most importantly , how does it affect the operating efficiency of Jason's dishwasher ? (lol)
Adds more power...so he can wash even more dishes. 😆
I had the same engine/transmission. Raises three questions. 1) Never would start without using glowplugs, even with outside temperature at 90F. That takes 50A for about 10s for each engine PLUS the starter motor load when turned over. 2) Could not stop without pulling manual decompression handle. Has this been replaced by using a solenoid? If so, is there still a manual decompress if solenoid fails? 3) Running transmission in 'N' wasn't recommended, had to be in 'R'. Ask questions about this!
Somebody far wiser than me once said that “simplicity of operation is a result of far greater effort at the design stage” . I think the HH hybrid system is a perfect example of this approach.
Great video as always 👍
I would say that is 100% true. I just wonder if the B&G interface craps the bed(they do), does everything still work or have a backup? Electronics are great until they do not work and modern electronics there is no "fixing" them, it is just 100% replacement.
@ 17:20 Jason's perplexed expression while attempting to comprehend the explanation was priceless. Don't feel bad. If you could see my face, it was the same. LOL
Simply fascinating, but complicated! It is just a matter of the experience bringing familiarity. The Wynns will do that. Fair winds are on the way. Enjoy.
When thinking about maintenance, my biggest concern is the control systems. There's still the prop, belts, transmission connections, but those will be relatively easy to diagnose and fix. While the electronics on the control system, the wiring, screens, etc are the things that will be hard to just diagnose, let alone repair, while at sea.
This was fascinating and relatively easy to understand the basics, all due to the three of you, from explanations through editing ! Thank you.
I'm going to be watching every update with total focus! That's a Badass system brother and can't wait to see how she holds up! Bravo 👍❤️🇺🇸
Hello, Nikki and Jason! Your timing in the adoption of this particular hybrid system is perfect. The system is cutting edge, but mature. James and his team have brought an amazing level of sophistication and refinement to the final product, always with attention to its ease of use by Sailors.
Stepping away from things technical, the bottom line will be a whole new level in your quality of life on the water..
Well done!
Love that color!❤❤❤
There's something really cool about the idea of sailing into some pristine remote anchorage, using only electric to maneuver while dropping the hook, and then recharging the batteries with solar. No loud diesels running, no stinky exhaust or fuel smells to detract from the quiet and fresh air. Will be hard to run totally off solar without turning off a lot of the luxury systems and sweating a little, but would be doable. You can really be quite self sustaining for a long time. Food becomes your limiting factor,.
Outstanding presentation! Superb! Thank you!
There are a lot of ways to accomplish a hybrid. I'm happy to see that HH has put the thought in to do this 100% right. I'm an electrician and kept looking for something to poke a hole in but this system is awesome. Great job HH! And Nikki and Jason also deserve credit here. You guys always put the required thought into what you're doing instead of just going with the crowd and doing things the same way it's been done for the last 100 years. Make sure to get that dishwasher so you don't make a liar out of me.😘
That was really interesting and the engineer dumbed it down so we could all understand. Now I understand why you chose a hybrid.
Great video! Exciting to see the new boat's features. One question. With so much of the control of the boat managed through the electronic systems, including the diesel engine's gauges, what happens if you get hit by lightning and it fries all the electrical components?
I really like all of the redundancy in this setup. To be able to move the boat in no wind without using diesel fuel is a huge game changer in my opinion. Less wear on the diesel engines because you don’t have to run them for short trips is also huge .
Really liked the systemexplanation. I‘m an EV guy for cars but I‘m enjoying this fulltime hybrid electric home vessel. Absolute awesome what HH put together and how many good details the system got. Looking forward to the videos of your own boat coming soon
Can’t wait to get started working problems off the new boat.can’t wait.
So cool to have backups to the backup!✌️💜
Amazing ! I bet you guys are so excited that you can hardly stand it.
I live a couple of miles from Braidbar Boats who feature in the magazine article you showed and regularly walk the dog along the canal past their yard. It's an ambition of mine to live on a canal boat, they are one of the top canal boat builders in the UK and I'd love to have them build a boat for us so I've looked into their hybrid system, and what was described here sounded very familiar, because Braidbar also use HybridMarine! One big advantage on a canal boat is engine efficiency - you size your engine, gearbox and prop for going against the tide on a fast flowing river with a gale force headwind but then spend 99% of the time pootling along a current less canal on a calm day. Putting the engine to so little effort means it runs really inefficiently, so adding the generator and working the engine hard means it's massively more efficient and you're using far more of the energy in the diesel fuel, stuffing it into the batteries and then, once fully charged, switching off the engine and using that energy for propulsion for far longer than you had the engine on for. On canal boats in the UK you can get enough power from solar for domestic supplies (though not necessarily in the winter) but the sun isn't ever really bright enough and there isn't enough space for panels to generate enough for propulsion unfortunately. Braidbar also provide a remote controller so you don't even to be on board to move the boat, e.g. if you're single handed and going through a lock - David (Cruising the Cut) did a video about it a while back. Wow! Suddenly this video went from China to so close to home!!! Top stuff!
Great video. To me, this is the perfect setup for a live aboard cruiser. You could literally just use the diesel very sparingly and use very little fuel. Quiet. Clean. But always there to get you away when required or to charge batteries for AC and other living comforts.
And it is still a performance sailing machine. I love it.
It's cool watching you and Nautistyles go through the same thing, though there's is gonna be while longer.
#TEAMJASON ‼️🥰
As Long as the dishwasher dont go Down on the 48V !!
Could the dishwasher run on the diesel engine and generator??? Make this one failure free🤣
SO!! The dishwasher CAN Run on windpower???!! GREAT!!!
Just another win for the dishwasher 🥰
Very cool! I like that they painted every inch of the engine. Including the fasteners
Thank you so much for sharing all about what looks to be an awesome boat, congrats!
Such an exciting learning channel! Love this channel!
Thanks!
Seeing your journey over the last few years, its also cool seeing the synchronization of your life/dreams/technology melding at the right time
Great presentation, thanks for taking us along!!
The owners and service manuals plus video on how to do it properly will be an important asset package. The numbers were being calibrated at one point. That procedure explained with instructions is what would be important to have. When the system is new with few experienced techs around the world, I'd want to be the tech and train an existing technician to help me.
Fascinating stuff! And that one peek at your boat… it’s going to be absolutely gorgeous. Can’t wait to see it in your hands, sailing (and sometimes motoring) the world.
So good once again, the underwater footage just ceases to amaze. Love it. Thank you 😊
Thanks for the update on an impressive hybrid system really looking forward to you two sailing again.
So exciting to see this build come together...
Thanks for keeping us abreast of the latest and the tech behind it all...
You guys are the greatest on land or on water...Keep on keeping on...
Wow, what a cool system. It sounds much easier to use and live with than I expected.
Thanks for the great technical tour . Great to watch you in action Jason you really ask the questions. I'm psyched to see a 44 at Annapolis.
I can’t wait till you all are in your new boat. Really enjoy watching the adventures.
Excellent video. Thank you so much for giving us a brief, but understandable, dive into the hybrid systems.
I guess simple is a relative term sometimes. That said I do like the philosophy that they try and keep things as simple as they can and boy is there a ton of redundancy. I like it. One more thing is there any update on the cat(s). Keep the good stuff coming guys.
A cat?
I didn't know!
Tell us more.
@@AndrewBlacker-wr2ve The Wynns had a cat named Singa a few years ago and I think another one too. The re-homed them a few years ago to simplify their life on the boat, a decision I fully agreed with. I was just wondering what ever became o them.
Singa is living his best life at Mutiny Ranch! You can follow his exploits @TalesFromTheMutiny on social media or Patreon. They regularly post vids and pics of his shenanigans. He has huge trees to climb, mice in the chicken coop to catch, and other cats to hang out with but Happy (a dog) is his best bud. Check out the channel!

@@johnnylightning1491 I knew all that.
Super introduction to hybrid propulsion on a sailboat. Thank you.
So Wise , Thank You . I hope every thing works as planned and designed
Great video and a Fantastic description of the hybrid system.
I bet your both getting very excited about taking delivery
All the best to you both
Can’t wait to see your new boat in operation as I’m sure you both are very excited to get it.
Couldn't Happen To A Nicer Couple. Blessings
Excellent run down, Jason. Fine video presentation. Thank you.
...really nice formatting ... like the text question/intros ahead of each article
...and REALLY informative across the board THANK YOU
You guys are huge ambassadors for the brand 😃
Thank you for sharing. Very interesting.
Great video, thank you.
I'll be watching it a few more times. Lots of good stuff discussed.
WOW! That is some cool power. And a cool boat! So cool!
Can’t wait to see more. Excellent video and so informative.
This is very exciting, I am going to have to watch this again. I right off the bat love that the system has a lot of simplicity and redundancy. Going this way in a new boat was very smart in your choice. The content this boat will create is to push your channel. Well done, I am sold!
I love the emphasis on two separate systems and a normal run of the mill diesel that anyone anywhere can fix. I love complex done simple
Slick system. Very innovative.
I am stoked about your boat!!! 😁
Wow! So many options! I can almost see Jason frozen behind the helm, trying to decide... 😎
Key word...REDUNDANCY.... Diesel, electric and wind. If they fail, then your TRUE SAILOR SKILLS kick in. Outstanding.
Really good video, concise with excellent delivery and explanations. You’re getting good at this!😁
Very informative Jason thank you 👍🏻
1:30 I love your comment and your passion behind it. I feel the same way. Was hoping to meet you at Annapolis but I’m guessing you’re going to be on the other side of the world celebrating your anniversary. Congrats!
I found and fell in love with HH 2 years ago and I am excited for you getting this fabulous new boat.
Very cool system. It will be fun to see it in operation when you get out there.
So many advantages with those engines😊Well done Jason&Nikky!
Sounds like a fantastic system, well done Wynns and HH.
VERY cool. Can't wait for you to get out there!
Nice!! Real nice, Can't wait to see those hybrids work, along with those multi-position wheels at the helms make a sweet machine in a neat trimmed sailboat. Will be be even better on your boat.
Brilliant explanation - very interesting
I can't wait for you guys to take delivery!! Can't wait to see how it all works and performs for you guys!
