Moonwave – Electric Propulsion & Hybrid System After years of development and working close with the engineers from Torqeedo by sharing our needs and requirements for Moonwave – we now have the complete Deep Blue Hybrid System installed on board. We had already several

Moonwave is back in the water after some major changes and improvements – she is looking better than ever and slides through the water like a champ. We are on our first trip offshore and will share more details about the modifications and new features soon. More pictures to come

Congratulations to Torqeedo for winning the Pittman Innovation Award from Sail Magazine for 2016 for their Deep Blue Hybrid System – check out the article. We are very excited to be part of the project and Moonwave is really looking great on the cover (and couple of other pages)

Here just a short update as we get often questions about the hybrid system as the system is very new and exciting and didn’t work out that well on other boats that tried earlier. We have the pleasure to have one of the first hybrid systems that really works and love to do regene

Today’s seatrials went great, at the beginning not a lot of wind – perfect conditions to test the integrated MOM-8 Man-Over-Board safety equipment, which worked great – and Sophie got picked up again after the test :-) Later there was a nice light breeze. We continue

Sea trials are continuing. Today was spent testing the hybrid propulsion system. It works perfectly – 9.6 knots boat speed with the electrical motors, and very good regeneration results when sailing. We are happy with the results and the environement will be as well. Thanks to e
