36' to 50' Yachts consume lot of fuel; +100 to 170 L/h at cruise speed, which translate into lot of operating cost ($/h) and lot of pollution.
Most of the energy on a yacht is spent on moving water.
Weather conditions create waves that make the navigation uncomfortable.
Maintenance of two large diesel engines, pod drive and battery banks is expensive.
Current hybrid yachts or solar yachts, in electric mode, are limited in speed and distance.
Hydrofoil system for significant energy saving.
Electric engines for propulsion and Li-Ion batteries.
Stability control with precision sensors.
Automatic hydrofoil control with less draft than standard yacht.
Simple navigation and joystick control with no special training required.
Hydrofoil system completely raised above the waterline to prevent fooling.
Semi deployed stern foils and engine at slow speed to minimise the drag.
Dynamic deployment of hydrofoil system to get less draft than standard yachts.
