Stay at Sea Forever with a Solar-Powered Yacht!

The NEW SILENT 55 has recently made its USA PREMIERE at the 2019 FT. LAUDERDALE INTERNATIONAL BOAT SHOW after making its debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2019 where Silent Yachts revealed its newest models (44 and 60).

Silent-Yachts presents the first and only oceangoing production yachts in the world that are fully solar sustainable and powered by solar energy. Pure solar-powered luxury. Silent-Yachts was founded on the visionary dream of significantly reducing the cost of yacht ownership by replacing high fossil fuel costs with free, renewable, clean solar energy without sacrificing livability and comfort. The future of luxury yachting is individualistic, silent, self-sufficient and respectful of nature and the environment. 

With 3 battery compartments holding 14 batteries in each bank, 2 electric motors and a full size genset, the Silent 55 has the capacity to reach 17 knots. The Silent 55 is the most sought after Silent Yacht to date. Offering 5 different layout versions and 3 different propulsion system versions, you may choose to run your Silent on nothing but the energy produced by the sun with 30 solar panels or the hybrid version with diesel motors for reinforcement. 

The Silent-55 is available today as an ORDER TO BUILD. Each 55 is custom ordered and tailored to your individual needs and wants. United Yacht Sales and Silent Yachts offers the opportunity to sit down with the Silent-Yachts Global Ambassador, the Silent Yachts Propulsion Engineer and Silent Yachts Naval Architect to tailor your very own custom Silent 55. Do you have your own interior designer in mind? We welcome the option to bring in your own interior decorator and work with our team at Silent Yachts to perfect your vision and turn your vision into a reality.
