Did you start another channel. I saw one of your videos on another channel yesterday? Or at least it sounds and looks like yours I believe the channel name was yacht yacht
ah, yes! I have seen that channel. Will be sending them an email shortly. I note that they have turned off the comments on the videos as well.
We are addicted to your channel
Thanks! 🫡⚓️
been waiting 10 years to see ANYONE build a good steel hull electric yacht, this company done it very well.
I must say, I loved the beautiful trawlers of the 1970s.
Thank you for the nice little video! I am in fact the owner of this vessel, and to me it is a fantastic boat which I intend to use as my new floating home!
Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment 🙌 she is a beautiful vessel 👍 congratulations 🎉 it is amazing what your vision combined with the technical knowledge and skill of Steeler has achieved, along with the designers at Vripack. I bet you cannot wait to start your adventures aboard her 🌎
And? Ocean crossings planned?
She's a beauty!
@@woody1851 No ocean crossing planned, will be used for costal cruising and full time live onboard. Cruising ground is the nordic countries and the Mediterranean, home ground is the stunning Norwegian costline☺️
Wow how wonderful!
Not before time; this appears to be an absolutely superb yacht in every respect.
Very impressive! I have been waiting for this.
I love it when you show deck plans and elevations of cabins and equipment. For me travel range at different speeds under ideal conditions, AND BAD SEA CONDITIONS, at different speeds is most important. Redundancy for me means two engines and two propellers and an emergency steering system are essential and should be included in any review. Hull thickness and construction material, especially ice class and double hull are important. How thick are those big windows? I have heard experienced boat builders say anything over 2 feet or 60cm is likely to break if lit by a rogue wave in a big sea. At sea safety comes first. I love what I see of the Steeler 61S. 👍👍👍
Great points. I always wonder what the risk are with those big windows. Ever a tap from another boat and I'm sure those windows are finished.
There's a lady at the marina where I keep my boat that has an electric boat. She's like a ninja. Very cool.
A nice boat and a modern boat that is very economical to operate.
I really like this boat I I love the idea of needing very little diesel and how quiet it would be underway.
🙌
Yes, this is the future of yachting. Can’t wait to view your next video on this vessel, maybe enjoy a real walk around
Fingers crossed 🤞 the drone and cameras are ready and waiting 🙌
Many thanks, at long last everything you could want in an ocean going yacht. I'm looking forward to seeing more with the plans included I hope.
Me too! I’m looking forward to showcasing this outstanding trawler yacht hopefully in the not-too-distant future
that is amazing! Spacious, well presented with industry leading propulsion
🙌
Beautiful vessel! I look forward to learning more about this boat.
Great video. I promised myself that somehow, if I wake up super rich one day, I'll buy the last yacht I watched! I try to watch a Bering every night but this will also do perfectly
Great philosophy 🙌 thanks for watching 👍
Stop steeling my dreams! Haha!! Hope the luck fall's on us both. Lv
For those who want electric, I think this is a good first step. Wider has been doing this for a couple years and it's nice to see it trickling down to the smaller market. While it's nice to say, "it's electric", it really isn't as it still requires a generator for several hours every 8-10 hours. Still, if some of the battery announcements over the past few months work out, it may be possible to extend the "every 8 hours" to every couple days or every couple weeks (depending on the battery technology and how well it can be moved from the lab to commercial applications).
Thanks for the comment 🙌 I can imagine one of these with a large retractable wind or water turbine that can charge the batteries whilst underway. Although, I’m not sure about the science behind this technology so I have no idea as to how big the wind/water turbine would need to be in order to negate the need for the generator 🤔
@@YachtBuoy Those wind turbines are probably 500W, so both of them going at full clip would produce 1kWh in one hour, which isn't enough to put a serious dent in even house power consumption. And they'd produce drag underway. But at anchor on a windy, cloudy day, they can supplement the solar. Not sure why they didn't entirely carpet the pilothouse roof with solar, which would've been better than adding the wind turbines.
@@jdray this is not built for the Mediterranean only. It features a Norwegian flag, and in a climate like that wind is pretty reliable.
@@RA-lj5jd, sure. But there have been several studies that indicate that, including maintenance, depreciation, etc., given that a wind turbine of that size doesn't have much output, wind is far more costly per kWh produced than solar. I'd be interested to see how the turbines on this boat perform over two or three years.
They make SAILBOATS for a reason
Fantastic yacht!! More information on its propulsion system and a look at the mechanical areas.
Watch this space 🙌👀
Just fantastic!
7000 NM extension cord. Awesome. haha
😂🙌
Beautiful! Thank you!
Finally they build th yacht i thought 20 years ago of , this is my dream yacht
🙌
Georgeus!!!! is a beatifull Lady, thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks for watching 🙌
EV: A solution to a problem that doesn’t exist.
Now that is rather cool! Like the one level main living area.
Nice, can't wait for the updates. Thanks
🙌
Intriguing. Would love to see/hear more about this vessel.
Watch this space 👀
Really a beautiful boat. Well-suited for an owner-operator. It looks like the diesel generator is primary and the solar panels are secondary. - very interesting concept.
Thanks for watching 🙌
Well done and what an amazing trawler!
Thanks for watching 🙌
I love this trawler.
Great compact package that’s super energy efficient. Hope the trials go well…
Thanks for watching 🙌
Looks like this is going to be a game changer... can't wait to see what happens next
🙌
Won't change any game. Its not new. Others have done so before.
Thank you for this little super yacht content !!! ⛴
Thanks for watching 🙌
Love it. I'm goin to need more.
New favorite boat..❤❤
I love it, very smart design.
🙌
Thanks for the video. I really like this in concept and execution. Very modern interpretation of a trawler yacht and I love the propulsion system. With the large battery capacity, solar and wind generators, you should be able to go many days at anchor without ever turning on the generator. Looking forward to future updates!
and after watching your videos from the beginning, I finally subscribed!
Thanks for watching and for subscribing 🙌
With solar and wind only, you can't go very far in these boats.
Amazing.
Nice!!! Please, more of those! That's the kind of boat I would like to own (maybe a little smaller 😁)👍
More to come!
Cool! This gave me some really good ideas on how to build an all electric yacht. One full floor of battery, maybe two floors. And a roof that can be stretched forward and backward (sliced out) when at sea. So it covers the whole length of the boat, and width! This is a trippellayer roof with solar pannels, and thus gives 3x the solarpower.. When docked, the roof is sliced back to the normal position
I have concerns about lithium battery fires, can't put them out. I will be all in when the master the sodium ion batterys
The vessel I’ve been waiting for ! Awesome !
Great concept and, seemingly, great execution. Very impressed with every design element. The layout, propulsion, the steel hull, the interior design, robustness, low profile, bow, and the overall silhouette of the boat. I’d love to see it on the hard, and get a look at the hull shape, rudder etc.
I going to sell my house! (Wether the wife wants to or not! lol She’s from a boating family - Great Lakes sailor - and she grew up spending summers aboard her fathers 46’ trawler on Lake Ontario in the Thousand Islands area. I’m a sailor with a few blue water trips under my belt - aprox 10,000 nautical miles in the Atlantic and West Indies, plus countless weeks spent on Lake Huron, Erie and Ontario on my C&C 36’. I’m retired and would love a trawler of this size, now.)
Welcome to the channel, shipmate ⚓️ thanks for watching and for leaving a comment 👍
You are right bro, same here, want that boat
Lucky!
Amazing
Powered by Hydrosta electric propulsion, steering, batteries, visualization 💪🏻💪🏻
thank you....!!! spot on video.
Thanks for watching 🙌
Please let us know when someone has done an Atlantic crossing in one. I doubt that it is possible today but I am hoping to be proven wrong because I love the idea.
Batteries for the win 😉.
Great trawler and video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment
Love it !! All the replies echo my own concerns.
wonderful ship
🙌
The electricity is definately the future. First, with those much much smaller electric motors, it frees up tons of space in the center of engine room. Second, the motors drink power from the same source as all other appliances onboard, which makes it easier to mnage. Third, we can use several generators combined with solar panels to power the boat, which means if one or two of the generators fail the boat can still power itself to the next destination.
🙌
..when they implement suitcase reactors. ill travel beyond "antarctica"
Smaller motor maybe, what about the storage of all those batteries and the charger.
Electronic is not and will never be the future. More diesel please. Fuckin woke idiots
Impressive…beautiful design…
🙌
exceptional!!!
🙌
Exciting concept. Would you please give us a look at the propulsion systems? Been enjoying your work and look forward to seeing more in the future. Thanks!
Thanks for watching and for the feedback 🙌 I will be doing a follow up to this video hopefully in the next few week s
Sweet!!!
Love your channel💙
Thanks 🙌 I appreciate the support 👍
Love it!!! Looking into contacting them soon😊
Go for it! Let me know how you get on 🫡
I like trawler yachts, especially electric. No high cost of fuel less moving parts, low maintenance costs. More people can afford to travel by boat.
I’d change up the two wind mill generators on top, use Tulip generators, more efficient.
Please do a more in-depth follow-up video on this yacht. Just subscribed after following for a while. Would like answers to:
* Ten hours at what speed?
* How many kWh is in the battery bank?
* How long can the ship sit at anchor on a full battery charge?
* What's the range on battery only (answered by the first question, but never hurts to re-ask)?
* What would a production version of this craft cost?
* Would this system scale down into the 45-50' range?
Thanks for watching and subscribing 🙌 I will take a screen shot of these Q’s 👍
The ten hours is at about 5,5 knots.
Battery bank is 184kWh.
3-5 days at anchor.
30-50nm on battery bank only.
All builds are completely custom. Building cost is higher than a regular fossile build, but running cost is lower, the investment last longer, and the sailing experience is much better, in my opinion.
The technical systems will scale very well both downwards and upwards. The clue is to not be pushy on speed.
Awesome
🙌
Fantastic concept, and about time electric motors get more use (obviously the likes of silent yachts, some greenline and possibly sunreef use them, but pretty much everyone else is still on diesel).
Wheel at the door of the wheelhouse is also very sensible, allows for single handed operation, and since it's an expedition yacht operating at displacement speeds, you'd only rarely need the wheel in normal navigation outside of the marina.
Looks like a proper sturdy little ship :)
Still waiting on that Lottery win though!
Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment 🙌 good luck with those numbers 👍
Diesel is and shall remain king.
This is diesel too. Diesel generator charging batteries. It's twice as harmful to environment.
Lekker man lekker 🇿🇦
🙌
❤
Would be nice to know more about that electric propulsion system. What's the capacity? How far can it take you, and at what speed? How many screws? Thrusters? Can it be charged via shore power if you don't want to run the generator? How much power does the solar provide? How is the house power provided--same battery, or a separate system? Do you need the generator while on anchor or is the solar enough? Also... what's the thing going to cost? I assume they're planning on making more than one of them.
I hope the CZcams algo does not penalize you if one of your subscribers watches a video multiple times in a row.
I have fallen in love with how this trawler looks and the tech innovation that powers it-I cannot stop looking at it, and have your/this video playing on a loop on my ipad.
Your views really help the algorithm so thanks for watching :-)
@@YachtBuoy, I’ll be spamming this particular video with my views then. 😁
Neat
Wunderbar ) merci )
Merci! Et merci d'avoir regardé
Curious why they didn’t go for a narrower bow like the FBS Dashew style trawlers. Also, they should have extended the roof over the aft deck to have more solar.
Wow wow wow! Such a nice innovative vessel! What is the price?
Great content love the video I would like to redo an older trawler like an old Hatteras lrc
That would be cool! Thanks for watching!
As exciting as this sounds , can they make it EMP proof ! So your not stranded out in the middle of nowhere ! Look amazing for a couple to voyage anywhere ! I Respect the work your doing , top notch as usual !
Thanks :-)
Subscribed and liked💯👍👍👍
Thanks! I appreciate the sub :-)
How fast does it go? Kind of an important point that was left out. Forgive me if I missed it. Thanks
Just needs a sportsub2 off back
Very interesting, do you have more specifications on this boat
The future of yachting is right here. The only thing not available yet is small reactors to provide the electricity needed for zero emissions but that should be available in the next 5 years IMO ✌️
That will be a truly phenomenal moment 🌎
It would have been nice to see more of the inside of the boat.
Hoping to get on board her soon 🙌 watch this space.
Have they published any performance data on this boat yet ?
👍👍🏻😍😍
I love it. But. I still want to se something like A : Deployable ponton with solar-sels on it. So it can run on solar ONLY when at anchor.
I am all for alternative energy, however, the battery technology has a long way to go prior to being accepted by the general public. As with any electric propelled object, the enormous amount of variables you might encounter has a direct effect on range, speed and other electric gadgets the car or boat are supplying. Charging times vary wildly. As consumers are now finding out with electric trucks, if used as a truck, the range is many times 1/2 or less of the manufacturers claims as proven by many real world tests of these vehicles. As far as a heavy yacht, I am sure the sea state will have an enormous effect on the range of these types of vessel's. Another consideration is potential issues with saltwater intrusion into the battery with a possible electrocution/fire hazard. Again, I have nothing against this technology, but I don't think the general public is getting all the information about the potentially large and expensive issues that could arise. Just because it's Green Technology doesn't mean it's the best choice for your needs at this particular time. Maybe in 5-10 the technology will have worked out the bugs, as of right now, it's not ready for prime time.
Yes!!!
🙌
Ok, nice boat. How much did it cost????
Great looking boat, what is the expected MSRP?
Thanks for watching 🙌 re the MSRP, I am not too sure yet
I’m hoping to get this but I need lottery money!
What is the maximum range fully charged and with one full tank? Could you travel intercontinental?
Lovely boat, bruv. What sort of mileage do you get out of something like that?
It depends on the results of her sea trials 🌊 watch this space for an update 🙌
Met respect, maar als je dit mooi vind. Hoop ik dat je er veel plezier mee mag beleven. Daar draait het om.
During a storm while using the electric motor can you charge the batteries with the Volvo motor?
I think the Volvo is the genset, probably 100 kW. So two hours of runtime would get 200 kWh of battery charged, which sounds about right for pushing a ship like this for ten hours.
Love the boat and it looks stunning. Has the builder mentioned anything about projected range? I know it is still undergoing sea trials now but I'd be interested to know if this is a true trans-oceanic vessel. It rated for it sure, but I would be interested to see on a typical crossing what the fuel consumption numbers would look like. Obviously you'd be running the generator 4-8 hours a day depending on weather and other variables. I'm more of a numbers guys when it comes to explorer vessels. More is better, I always like seeing a true range well over 4000 nautical miles and lots of redundancy in the systems.
It was noted that it takes 2 hours of charging to top up the batteries for a 10 hour run. It would appear that the fuel tanks do not need to be large to accommodate a 3000nm range, for example.
@@manuelbettencourt7413 you will need the same or even slightly more fuel for a transatlantic crossing... the inefficiencies of charging and discharging the batteries is what gets you. and fuel has the same amount of energy in it no matter what you spin... a propeller or a generator. dont get me wrong... this is great for visiting fjords or delicate ecosystems, but it wont save you any fuel. and as for the solar panels... they are more of a fashion statement and tricklecharge for the batteries at dock.
@@jstefa2 I'm not sure that is correct. Can yhou explain in more detail?
@@whattodonext312 laws of thermodynamics... if you burn fuel for energy it doesn't matter how you get it to the propeller... if you want your engines to be stationary for half the time you will need to burn double the fuel for the other half to keep the same speed. half the fuel for propulsion and other half to charge the batteries. having batteries on board for cross Atlantic is not an efficiency solution... its comfort solution so you don't have engines rattling during the night.
She's a looker, and I love the advantage of having a genset onboard that will charge the entire bank of batteries in a couple of hours. I do have a few questions though, considering this is about to change the world as we know it. John, having seen the two vessels up close and personal like, which would you chose? As I think I already know your answer, would the technology in the Steeler 61 fit into the Arksen? I bloody well hope so!! The other biggie I have is how expensive are the batteries and what is the charge life? Thanks as always for your hard work, Mate! Cheers - Dave
Good questions 🙌 re the two boats, I would need to see them both ‘face to face’ to make a decision
@@YachtBuoy They are that close eh? So even if you could put the Steeler 61's entire propulsion system and electrics etc. into the Arksen, you are saying it's close enough to need to see them face to face? Man, do we ever live in a glorious time! I'll likely never own either of them sadly (not without some divine intervention or a massive Lottery Win!! Or both!!) but just to know they even exist makes me smile! Take care, John! Can't wait to see what you find next!! Oh and how great is the Isle of Wight right now! Not only producing boats like the Arksen line, but also having a band like "Wet Leg" hail from there,...pretty cool, and good for them!!
Charge time solar only would be a good thing to know? The cost for purchase and upkeep estimates?
Thanks for watching 🙌 the yard will be releasing more info once the sea trials are complete 🌊
Wonder how many batteries it would take without any charging to go say 5000 NM? Could pile them up everywhere:)
What a surprise! I thought electric yachts would be limited to lightweight designs.
(I appreciate the added security of a steel hull)
wring
Any details on fuel capacity, cruising speed, max range and WOT speed?
not yet - but I am hoping to get aboard her at the Cannes Yachting Festival and if I do then I will, of course, report back to my viewers :-)
Excellent video ... what is price point?
Glad you enjoyed the video :-) Not sure but I will find out for you when I head to Cannes Yachting Festival next week as this is one of the boats that I want to film
G'DAM
Hi, great looking yacht, I take it range is endless, have you any idea as to speed and cost, also is the a back up motor., ( shit happens). Great vid:)
Good questions 🙌 I will try and find this information out for my next Steeler video 👍
Hello!
👋
@@YachtBuoy 👍
This is truly a lovely boat however I'm still not sure about the power source. Batteries have a finite life span and are hard to dispose off without causing a problem to the environment not to mention the issues of creating them in the first place. I'm all for trying to leave the smallest footprint possible just not sure Batteries are the way, however as I said before a truly beautiful boat
Any idea of what the cost of this fantastic trawler was?
I’m not too sure but am hoping to do a follow-up video 🙌
