Hybrid Mode
In this setting, you can cruise at
speeds of up to 9 knots at noise
levels of just 46dB. This noise level
is equivalent to soft rain! The yacht
possesses two water-cooled DC
electric shaft motors of 127kW each,
which quietly power the yacht. The
benefits of these motors are silent
cruising and higher maneuverability in
close quarters.
Economic Mode
At this setting, you can cruise at
speeds of 9 to 12 knots with the main
engines on, and the generators
turned off. This mode is ideal for
longer passages where a balance of
fuel consumption, power, and speed
is required. The economic mode
comes with few interesting perks as
well, which include the frugal fuel
consumption (at 12 knots the yacht
burns just 98 liters per hour) and the
extended generator service life.
Cruising Mode
In this setting, you can cruise at
speeds of 12 to 15 knots. This is the
vessel’s traditional cruising mode,
where the diesel engines drive the
yacht’s propellers, and the generators
provide the hotel load.
Boost Mode
In this setting, you can cruise at a
maximum speed of 16.3 knots, for
which the generator-powered shaft
motors are brought into service
alongside the main engines to give
an extra kick of power.
These power modes can be
adjusted to manage the vessel’s
power and fuel consumption
according to requirement and
allows you to navigate the water
without needing to limit your
experience.
Aesthetic Exterior
The exterior of the vessel has been
designed by Dutch designer Frank
Laupman of Omega Architects.
The exterior features modern,
minimalistic, and contemporary
elements that create a radical and
stunning profile with a nearly vertical
bow.
The distinct blend of functionality
and aesthetics is apparent at each
angle of the vessel, especially for
the vertical bow, which combines
a trending style with practical
engineering that provides the vessel
with progressive buoyancy when
carving through waves.
The distinct bow shape
also allows crew chambers
to be placed more to
the front of the vessel,
leaving more room for
the hotel compartments
and accommodations.
Combined with the sharp
exterior design of the
vessel and the powerful
capabilities of the propulsion
system, Project Electra
is the perfect choice for
seakeeping when carving
through rough waters or
sailing across the peaceful
ocean.
These features give an
attractive, eye-catching look
to the vessel that is sure to
attract attention at every
destination so that you can
cruise in style across the
world.
Organic Interior
Design
The vessel possesses five
lower deck suites that can
accommodate twelve
guests. In addition, Project
Electra also offers a master
stateroom on the main
deck forward. The forward
