– Designed in and out by Marco Casali of Too Design, naval architecture by Insenaval – Solar-powered propulsion and household, pure silence due to electric propulsion – Max speed is up to 20 knots on 2×250 kW engines – Clean environment, no vibrations and fumes – No generator required for air conditioning and cooking at anchor – The Silent 79 is self-su�cient with unlimited range without burning fuel
Silent-Yachts, Austria-based producer of ultra-innovative oceangoing solar-powered catamarans,is making a big leap in size introducing its largest model to date. The spacious and stylish Silent 79is now under construction at a shipyard in Marotta, near the Italian shipbuilding capital Ancona.Three units are under construction, two have already been sold, and the �rst unit is to belaunched in 2020.
Sophisticated Design
Michael Köhler, Silent-Yachts Founder and CEO, has created the Silent 79 concept, while EnriqueCastilla of Insenaval is responsible for naval architecture. Marco Casali of Too Design wascommissioned to design the exterior and interior of the new yacht. In terms of styling, the Silent79 is an evolution of the company’s vision. It carries the DNA of the smaller Silent 55 model but ona much larger scale.
“I think, solar-electric boats are the future that is why I immediately agreed to work with MichaelKöhler on his exciting venture,” said designer Marco Casali, who has a vast resume of successfulsuperyacht projects with the likes of ISA Yachts, Columbus Yachts, Itama and Canados. “Solarpower is about square meters, so we need to dedicate as much surface to the solar panelsaspossible, while keeping the overall balance in shape. In my opinion, we managed that with the

Silent 79. What I tried to achieve is an interesting Italian design, sophisticated and re�ned. This is anice-looking yacht that meets e�ciency.”
The Silent 79 exterior is clean and timeless with straight lines of huge windows. They also allowabundance of natural light �lling the saloon and guest spaces while providing panorama viewsthroughout. Carrying solar panels, the �ybridge adds sportiness to the look thanks to horizontalair grills inspired by supercars but with eco appeal. Both aft and forward outside spaces arespacious to host large, yet intimate, social areas. The cockpit in the aft has a lounge and a bar,while the front area is perfect for chilling under the sun, as it is equipped with a sea-facing sofaand sunpads.
The new yacht is built using vacuum-bagged resin infusion to create a lightweight glass-sandwichcomposite construction that has sound- and temperature-insulating qualities.
Solar Power for unlimited range
Like the Silent 55, the new Silent 79 is an oceangoing solar-electric catamaran that uses silentelectric propulsion for unlimited range without noise or fumes and minimal vibration, she is self-su�cient and virtually maintenance-free.The catamaran is �tted with a pair of electric engines (50kW each in standard “Cruiser” version, 250 kW each in “E-Power” version) and common shafts. Inthe most powerful version, the Silent 79 can reach up to 20 knots but this yacht’s mission is notfocused on speed for sure. However, it o�ers total autonomy with no fuel, fumes, exhausts ornoise.
The system works quite simple and virtually without any maintenance needed. The catamaran iscapable of going at 6-7 knots in complete silence and with unlimited range passing around 100nautical miles per day.
With 70 high-e�ciency solar panels rated for approximately 25 kilowatt-peak, the Silent 79 usesmaximum power point tracking (MPPT) solar charge regulators and the same lithium batteries asused by Tesla, which provide capacity for all-night cruising, while a 15-kVA inverter provides powerfor all household appliances.
The energy production and propulsion systems require hardly any maintenance and produce nofumes or noise. Because of that, the operational costs of the vessels are substantially lowercompared to power yachts using traditional propulsion systems.
The Silent 79 has a generator too but this is only used to recharge the batteries in the rare casewhen higher speed is required for longer periods of time or if the weather is bad for several days.
In addition, a “Hybrid Power” version of the SILENT 79 has a pair of 220 HP motors combined withtwo 14 kW diesel engines.
Flexible layout
The Silent 79 is available in several di�erent layouts. You can �nda huge saloon on the main deck,bene�tting from enormous 10.95 m width, with a galley inside, a lounge and a dining area. Thelower deck is �tted with 4-6 guest cabins and two crew cabins. All staterooms o�er double or twinberths, and all heads include a separate shower. Other layouts are available on request.
“For example, the �rst unit, which is under construction now, has a balanced 4-cabin layout withtwo real owner cabins”, explains Marco Casali. “The aft master suite has a huge room, a study, awalk around closet and even a sauna.”
As there is no actual engine room because the yacht is solar-powered, the Silent 79 has the largestgarage in the category. “There is enough space for a 4.5-meter long tender, an amphibious carand a gyrocopter on �oats, which is quite impressive for a yacht under 24 m long”, commentsMichael Köhler.
Superyacht level inside
The interior of the Silent 79 is completely customizable on the level of superyachts. Since theSilent-Yachts’ heritage is about being green and eco-friendly, the yacht is principally decorated
