Propulsion Systems for Monohulls

Clean, Quiet & Efficient

Sailing monohulls is about experiencing the ocean in its purest form—effortless gliding through the waves, powered by the wind. Oceanvolt’s state-of-the-art electric propulsion systems improve this experience by offering a clean, quiet, and efficient alternative to traditional diesel engines.

Whether you are a coastal cruiser, a bluewater voyager, or a competitive racer, our solutions are designed to maximize performance, sustainability, and onboard comfort.

The silence of an Oceanvolt electric propulsion system is a skipper’s dream—whether quietly maneuvering through a harbor, motor-sailing on low-wind days to create your own apparent wind, or enjoying the tranquility of emission-free cruising, our electric solutions will enhance and extend your sailing enjoyment.

Oceanvolt offers electric and hybrid systems as a power & propulsion option in partnership with many leading monohull boat builders – adding new partners continuously. We also offer repowering solutions for converting away from legacy diesel engines – removing the diesel engine, fuel tanks and exhaust system – cleaning up greasy, smelly engine compartments and freeing up both weight and space below deck.

Oceanvolt systems for monohulls are scaled and configured to achieve maximum efficiency – taking into consideration boat length, beam and displacement as well as system weight and placement within the boat.  Range, beyond battery capacity, is extended through hydro generation while sailing above 6kn.  This can be complemented with either a portable AC generator or a DC generator (in larger boats or for long distance cruising).

All Oceanvolt systems are engineered to operate at 48 volts for passenger safety and ease of repair. Oceanvolt systems are extremely low maintenance.
