CONTOUR 50 TRIMARAN
The Contour 50 Trimaran "Alexandra" is a 2001 built high performance multihull based in Nantucket Massachusetts that has received a complete professional upgrade. In addition to the 10kW Oceanvolt electric motor system installed the boat was upgraded in 2013 with a new mainsail and new solar panels adhered to the mast. The Contour 50 uses the Oceanvolt SD10 primarily as a hydro generator. The system has been tuned to maximize the regeneration efficiency with +20% more power being generated. At 11 knots the system is generating 1,7 kW. The SD10 can also be used for propulsion. For more information about the multihull, visit their Facebook page or website.
