Your sailing profile

For the electric propulsion/engine capacity we have assumed 2 x Mastervolt PodMaster 10 (10 kW/48 V). This recommended system enables you to cruise at five knots for four hours. You can also replace the recommended battery set with two 24 V Mastervolt Lithium Ion batteries. In addition to benefits such as a long life span and superior technology, these weigh 150 kg less and offer a 60-litre saving on volume.

You don't want to have to think about what to use or when. Simultaneous power is best.
Your navigation station includes a GPS, plotter, speedometer and depth gauge.
Your yacht has several pumps for water, shower, toilet and bilges.
You require optimum ease of operation; not only centrally located but also next to your bed or in the engine room.
