Michael & Heike have travelled the oceans themselves for over 40 years. But, it was back in the early 2000s, when they were determined to find a better way to supply energy to the propulsion system and the onboard appliances of yachts. After years of dedicated research, this led to the birth of the Solarwave 46 in 2009 – their first prototype of a solar powered catamaran. In 2010, they initiated a rigorous four-year sea trial. They crossed Europe by river, sailed the Black Sea, the stormy Aegean, as well as the vast Mediterranean. This was the proof of concept that the reliable solar electric drivetrain was an ideal choice for a self-sufficient and emission free lifestyle on board. Sneak peek into the Solarwave 46 voyage, back in 2010! #solaryachting #yacht #yachtdesign #yachts #solar #solarenergy #solarpowered #boat #boatinglifestyle #boatinglife #boatlife #boats #sail #sailors #sailor #future #katamaran #catamaran #oceantravel #technology #electric #luxuryyacht #innovation #tech #silentyachts #boating #history #experience For more information, click here: https://company.silent-yachts.com/history/ https://www.silent-yachts.com Follow us here: https://www.facebook.com/silentyachts https://www.instagram.com/silent_yachts_headquarters https://www.twitter.com/Silent_Yachts

Ahoy! Sailing bliss or disaster? We're leaving the Eagle Point marinara a raw sail downwind to our marina in Lake Dallas. Cyndi and I have come this far to try our hand at a downwind wing-on-wing sail plan, after an easterly beam reach, then a westwardly sail. We had a great time practicing the training run and the down-wind sail setup. We leave our old friend, Sneaky Pete's Grill, and Eagle Point Marina behind and press forward, sailing back to Lake Dallas in our Catalina C-30 Tall Rig sailboat named Zanadu! Cheers! - Rodney & Cyndi #sailingcouple #sailingintonirvana #boatlife #sailinglife #sailingcouple
