Yachting Ideas is aiming to make competitive yacht racing a greener affair with its 'Sly Yacht' concept. This sailboat is designed to be lightweight and capable of running off of either its sails or an on-board electric motor.
The 'Sly Yacht' is made of PVC sandwiched between layers of carbon and basalt fibers. With a 30kw electric engine, 'the Sly Yacht' can be recharged by a small diesel generator if needed. This catboat is the perfect vessel for eco-friendly entertainment on the water.
