VisionF 101: First 31m catamaran yacht sea trials

VisionF Yachts has announced that the flagship 30.7-metre VisionF 101 catamaran yacht has successfully completed her first sea trial.

First 31m VisionF 101 catamaran yacht reaches 20 knots on sea trials

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5603" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="VisionF (Company)">VisionF Yachts</a> has announced the delivery of the second 23.97-metre solar-electric E-Cat 80 catamaran yacht, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/16042" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gloria Maris23.97m (78'8&quot;)VisionF2025">Gloriamaris</a>. The all-electric yacht was delivered from the Turkish builder’s Tuzla shipyard.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382719/image/large-e5ed8c7fc45984b85a6202e22d464807.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382719">According to VisionF, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/16042" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gloria Maris23.97m (78'8&quot;)VisionF2025">Gloriamaris</a> represents a further step in the shipyard’s commitment to clean, efficient and future-oriented yachting. Reflecting the model’s signature aesthetic, she features a sleek, contemporary exterior profile designed by Marco Casali of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4335" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Marco Casali Too Design (Company)">TOO Design</a>.Many of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/16042" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gloria Maris23.97m (78'8&quot;)VisionF2025">Gloriamaris</a>’ features are owner-driven, made possible by the series’ semi-custom platform. The catamaran’s owner, Gregg Hamann, brings firsthand cruising experience from time spent aboard a 50-foot catamaran, underscoring his passion for adventure-led and exploration-focused travel.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382728/image/large-ffb5b01664a78ae9e13535a9c99ea2f7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382728">“I expect to use this boat as an adventure boat,” said Hamann. “Summers in the Med, winters in the Red, that’s the goal. Beyond that, I’m hoping to take it further afield, to the Indian Ocean. One reason I got a bigger boat is because I want to travel to very remote parts of the world, and this should be the platform that makes it happen.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382727/image/large-2819656058107c02a26c8ca9a381580f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382727">Supporting these long-range ambitions, the yacht is equipped with additional solar panels to reduce generator use and extend fully electric cruising time. Adventure-oriented highlights also include a custom dive cabinet designed to securely store scuba tanks and connect directly to a high-capacity air and nitrox compressor. This integrated system allows for rapid refills without reliance on shoreside facilities, a critical feature for expeditions to remote dive destinations worldwide. A passionate diver, Hamann ensured these capabilities were central to the yacht’s design.In addition to her adventure-focused capabilities, a number of bespoke features were introduced to ensure that <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/16042" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gloria Maris23.97m (78'8&quot;)VisionF2025">Gloriamaris</a> is equally suited to family life. Among the most distinctive is a purpose-designed music room on her flybridge, housing both a piano and a harp, creating a creative space for shared moments onboard.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382734/image/large-c192e7941ae96c691c04acd6ae99af5f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382734">With plans to welcome his grandchildren aboard, Hamann hopes they will grow up immersed in life at sea, much as his own children did on the family’s previous yacht. Reflecting this multigenerational vision, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/16042" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gloria Maris23.97m (78'8&quot;)VisionF2025">Gloriamaris</a> is equipped with a dedicated children’s room, a flybridge Jacuzzi and dedicated provisions to introduce younger family members to scuba diving, ensuring both comfort and meaningful experiences for the next generation.Hamann also considered his yacht’s carbon footprint while building the boat. “I’ve spent most of my life on the water, and one of the things that always distressed me about cruising, fishing or diving is the carbon footprint,” he explained.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382731/image/large-ce2b5a3db2af633663aa49a158a8be52.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382731">Built from lightweight carbon fibre, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/16042" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gloria Maris23.97m (78'8&quot;)VisionF2025">Gloriamaris</a> is powered by twin 180 kilowatt <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7862" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Danfoss A/S (Company)">Danfoss</a> electric motors, delivering a cruising speed of six to eight knots. A total of 63 high-output solar panels generate up to 25.2 kilowatt-hour to charge the onboard battery system, enabling extended periods of fully electric operation.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382725/image/large-c805495c81872b32ec6c6e0e09a2849b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382725">In optimal conditions, the catamaran can cruise with effectively unlimited endurance thanks to her efficient hull design and continuous solar regeneration. For higher-speed passages or increased power demands, twin 150 kilowatt generators and a five-tonne fuel reserve provide backup capability, offering a range of up to 3,500 nautical miles when required.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382724/image/large-26df2fdf5dd2b2b4d4b9f45c367d8d49.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382724">“On a conventional boat, you can easily spend more than a thousand dollars a day on fuel. The ability to harness solar power and spend time in port or at anchor without running engines has always been very appealing to me. Combined with the lack of noise and diesel fumes, it makes a significant difference,” he added.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382721/image/large-289dce7536ddf2731810dc7f094e11a6.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382721">Hamann acknowledged that solar-electric yachts come with certain operational compromises, with top speed being the most significant: “If I want to go somewhere at 20 knots, that’s not going to be possible with this boat.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382710/image/large-9d9ce540b2b1e307202a875446844158.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382710">Despite this, he feels the trade-off is worthwhile. “But for me, the fuel savings and the ability to travel with minimal impact are worth giving up some speed. If I can cross from one part of the world to another at six or seven knots without burning tens of thousands of gallons of diesel, that’s a win-win,” Hamann concluded.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382717/image/large-f55939973c9bcb89c92c92ca127a6334.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382717">According to <a href="https://sytiq.superyachttimes.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">SuperYacht iQ</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5603" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="VisionF (Company)">VisionF</a> currently has several yachts under construction, including the 30.7-metre Muzoon and the fourth 24.5-metre VisionF 82.

When the Miami Fire Rescue team arrived on the scene on Sunday morning, they saw how extensive the fire was and had to send out a second alarm to request more units to assist with the damage.According to news broadcaster NBC6 Miami, 34 units attended the fire and over 100 firefighters were on the scene. Due to the billowing smoke and the complexity of the incident, the team had low visibility while tackling the flames onboard <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/12081" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Flagship24.5m (80'5&quot;)VisionF2023">Flagship</a>. <iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/940719646?share=copy" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe> The fire was under control after an hour, with Miami Police posting a traffic alert to social media saying the 12th Avenue bridge along NW 7th Street was shut down due to the boat fire and urged drivers to take an alternate route. The cause of the fire is yet to be determined, but authorities believe the solar panels onboard also helped to fuel the fire further.&nbsp;"[<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/12081" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Flagship24.5m (80'5&quot;)VisionF2023">Flagship</a>] also has solar power panels on the top and a lot of electrical batteries as well that power those solar panels. So, that is obviously fueling the flames," explained Miami Fire Lieutenant Pete Sanchez to NBC6.

"The yard was closed for weekend and no work was onboard.

Amidst rumours of bankruptcy, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5188" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Silent Yachts (Company)">Silent-Yachts</a> have issued the following statement: “<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5188" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Silent Yachts (Company)">Silent-Yachts</a>, with its shipyard in Fano, Italy, is currently operating normally. However, the discontinuation of a subcontractor, which produced a significant portion of catamarans, has prompted the company to undergo a restructuring phase. The goal is to transition from a founder-funded entity to an investor-funded one, led by experienced industry professionals. Substantial investments are being made by investors and supportive customers who have expressed their commitment, demonstrating unwavering belief in the product, dedication to the brand, and trust in its founders. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/272081/image/large-a5093e227101c51503d63bb382b4abf7.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/272081">These positive changes are expected to enhance the company's growth potential, fostering a lean and efficient organisational structure that focuses on the production of solar electric boats under the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5188" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Silent Yachts (Company)">Silent-Yachts</a> brand in Italy. The shift to modular series production is scheduled for March 2024. In this approach, all yacht components will be arranged side by side in a shed, enabling simultaneous installations rather than sequential ones. This method of repeatable processes significantly reduces throughput times, minimises costs, and enhances product quality. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/272072/image/large-a523009d5e4410b82d6f096630877896.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/272072">Founders Michael and Heike Köhler are transitioning management responsibilities at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5188" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Silent Yachts (Company)">Silent-Yachts</a> to COO Fabrizio Iarrera.

Furthermore, the article outlines two potential strategies being considered to mitigate the impact.
