Visitors to the boat show can tour the cutting-edge Silent 62 3-Deck Open version, a full-electric catamaran offering a quiet, emission-free experience on the water, thanks to its advanced solar-powered technology.
The new Silent 62 makes full use of the upper deck as a huge flybridge entertaining space, with dining and lounging areas tailored to the owner's preferences, showcasing the versatility of the design.
The Italian shipyard also offers a Silent 62 Closed version of this model, featuring an enclosed upper deck. Both versions boast a spacious main deck saloon of 50sq/m with large windows, a fully equipped kitchen, and a dining area, creating a bright, open living space. The total exterior area of the main deck is 80sq/m, including an aft cockpit ideal for alfresco dining and relaxation, and a cozy foredeck lounge with panoramic views.
The Silent 62 3-Deck features Silent Yachts' trademark super-efficient catamaran hull shape and innovative solar electric drivetrain without fumes, emissions, or noise. The drivetrain utilizes the latest liquid-cooled batteries with higher energy density, greater capacity, and faster charging rates, thanks to optimized thermal management.
Equipped with a solar array of 16.8kWp, twin 180kW E-motors, and a 286kWh lithium-ion battery pack, plus a range extender of 145kW peak, the Silent 62 3-Deck offers a cruising speed of 6-8 knots and a transoceanic range.
The yacht offers four to six guest cabins, depending on the owner's requirements, with up to six bathrooms available through customization options.
The third deck, covering 60sq/m, is available in three versions: an open sky lounge, a closed sky lounge, and a closed owner's suite. All versions include a "front exit" on the main deck, allowing guests to step directly onto the foredeck from the main saloon.
The official press presentation at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2024, is scheduled for 1630hrs on September 10 on board the Silent 62 3-Deck (Vieux Port, QML 009).
