Austrian builder Silent-Yachts has launched the first Silent 62 3-Deck at its facility in Fano, Italy. The 18.8-metre will be handed over to her owners in the next few weeks.
Based on the Silent 60, the electric catamaran offers an additional third deck instead of the previous model's flybridge.
The third deck is available in three different versions: an open skylounge, a closed skylounge and a closed owner's cabin variation. This first model has an additional open deck instead of the flybridge, offering an "outdoor community space" equipped with dining facilities and panoramic views.
Accommodation is across six cabins. All versions of the new model benefit from a "front exit" on the main deck, which allows guests to step directly onto the foredeck from the main saloon.
The yacht also has a "new, ultra-efficient" drivetrain that offers greater capacity and faster charging rates. This same setup was seen on the two Silent 62 catamarans, which were launched at the end of 2023.
"The launch of our first Silent 62 3-Deck is a proud moment as we continue to innovate and expand the Silent range," said CEO Fabrizio Iarrera."It is also proof positive that the brand continues to operate normally and is focused on delivering to clients."
Equipped with a solar array, twin electric motors, a lithium-ion battery pack and a range extender, the Silent 62 3-Deck has a cruising speed of 6 to 8 knots and a transoceanic range. She has a daily energy generation of approximately 100kWh.
Silent-Yachts currently has a 36.7-metre explorer yacht under construction, with delivery scheduled for this year.
