Yacht of the Month - Sunreef 80 Eco

Sunreef Yachts recently launched the world’s most advanced sustainable luxury catamaran. The all-electric Sunreef 80 Eco is a fully-autonomous craft using revolutionary green tech for fuel-free cruising in total silence and luxury. Designed and built to navigate in complete harmony with the elements, the Sunreef 80 Eco is a pioneer in the world of responsible yachting.

Unique in the industry, the Sunreef 80 Eco’s solar power system features ultralight composite-integrated solar panels within the hull sides, mast, superstructure and bimini roof. Using an industry-first technology, the photovoltaic system can deliver up to 36 kWp.

The yacht’s wind-free propulsion comes from twin 180kW electric engines providing top energy efficiency and performance. While under sail, the Sunreef 80 Eco recovers energy from the passive motion of the two propellers thanks to an advanced hydro generation system. The energy obtained will be used to power both the propulsion and house appliances. The system will be able to generate over 15 kWh while sailing above 7 kts.

On April 12th, during La Grande Motte International Multihull Show in France, the electric Sunreef 80 Eco won the Multihull of the Year Award 2023 in the Forever Green category. Read more here.
