DutchCraft prepares to launch its all-electric DC25 catamaran dayboat

- Quiet and ultra-efficient electric power train

- 65 nautical mile range at 6 knots

- Most efficient 25-foot displacement hull

- 100 units already sold to a charter company

Based on the experience of building the all-electric, carbon-fibre DC25 monohull, the first unit of the multipurpose DC25 e-cat is almost ready for launch. The new 7.76-metre GRP model has yet to touch the water but #dutchcraft has already sold 100 units to a European client who runs a chartering company.

The capable yet low-maintenance all-electric drivetrain means the DC25 e-cat can cruise marine reserves, protected waters and lakes where boats with conventional propulsion cannot – all with zero fumes and noise.

The range of the DC25 e-cat goes up to an impressive 65nm at its cruising speed of 6 knots and the boat reaches a top speed of 12 knots with a twin Torqeedo 12 kW propulsion system.

“The DC25 e-cat is the culmination of our search for an environmentally clean and exceptionally efficient electric dayboat that is rugged and adaptable enough to suit a wide range of activities,” says Sietse Koopmans, founder and owner of #dutchcraft and sister company Zeelander Yachts. “With expert help, we ran extensive computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tests and experiments to hone the most streamlined and energy-saving hull shape. We’re confident the DC25 e-cat is the most efficient 25-foot displacement #yacht on the market.”

“Whether exploring lakes, canals, fjords or coastlines, enjoying an active day swimming and diving, or relaxing to soak up the sunshine, the DC25 e-cat offers an exceptionally versatile platform, with silent cruising and minimal environmental impact,” adds Koopmans.

The first DC25 e-cat is due to be launched in November 2022.
