Experience the next generation of sailing with the Eco Panther Series by McConaghy Boats, a groundbreaking collection of electric hybrid yachts that seamlessly blend performance with sustainability. This innovative series includes the Panther 48 and 56, with the larger 68 and 78 models currently in development.
The Eco Panther Series is a testament to sophistication and modernity, allowing you to adopt a more eco-friendly lifestyle while enjoying a stylish, contemporary interior. These yachts redefine your adventures on the water, offering remarkable speed and agility in a lightweight design that captivates with its bold black topsides and sleek silver lines.
**Eco-Friendly Design and Performance**
The Eco Panther Series is designed to be lightweight and straightforward, enabling it to operate fully electric and eco-friendly. At a cruising speed of 7.5 knots, it consumes only 16.11 kilowatts of power in total. With an expansive 95 square meters of solar panels, while achieving 100% efficiency is challenging due to hull shadows, we estimate a maximum output of 12 kilowatts on a sunny day.
**Regeneration Capabilities and Range**
This yacht's regenerative capabilities allow it to charge at 2.09kW while sailing at 7.5 knots, further enhancing its efficiency and sustainability.
**Range Under Power**
When running solely on the stored 62 kWh batteries and operating the generator at 5.7 knots, the yacht can cover approximately 1000 nautical miles, with the potential to exceed 1,800 nautical miles when including solar power.
**Electrical System**
The yacht's primary electrical system operates at 48 volts, powering propulsion and high-load features like winches and water makers. A 12-volt system handles navigation lights and pumps, while a 5kW Quattro inverter charger powers the electric three-burner induction hob and convection microwave. Multiple 110 or 230V outlets and USB-C charging ports ensure all your devices stay powered.
**Ventilation and Bright Living Spaces**
Thoughtful ventilation design includes overhead hatches and portlights in every cabin, while the saloon features two forward-opening hatches and a sliding door, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere.
**Enhanced Performance Features**
Designed for simplicity, the Panther Series is equipped with luxurious extras that enhance convenience. Notable features include a full carbon mast with a carbon boom, a fully battened mainsail, headsail, and flying sail for exceptional sailing performance. A McConaghy RIB with a Mercury 7.5e electric outboard is included for reliable propulsion when needed.
**Steering and Navigation Systems**
The performance-oriented steering system utilizes a lightweight chain and rope setup, paired with a chain-driven autopilot for precise control. A comprehensive B&G navigation system with dual 12-inch touchscreen displays ensures seamless operation for routing and speed monitoring.
**Deck Gear and Maneuverability**
The deck gear layout is optimized for weight savings and maintenance ease, featuring a single power winch under the deck for efficient sail handling. Two aft winches assist with sail management, while easy-to-operate daggerboards enhance maneuverability.
**Innovative Anchoring and Sailing Design**
The design incorporates a carbon fiber longeron with no cross beam to save weight, and an integrated anchoring system for streamlined functionality. The self-tacking headsail and line drive simplify tacking, enabling effortless maneuvers from the helm. The autopilot can maintain a head-to-wind position for sail hoisting, perfect for single-handed sailing or relaxed handling with a partner.
**Modern Interiors and Luxury Features**
The interior showcases an ultra-modern aesthetic, featuring soft lighting beneath lightweight floating furniture and a sophisticated mix of satin black finishes with carbon accents. The design is complemented by grey soles and lightweight liners, creating a chic and welcoming environment. Ultra-modern EVA half-deck and foredeck finishes add to the lightweight structure while providing an elegant look, with plush sundeck cushions on the foredeck for relaxation and entertaining.
**Outdoor Social Spaces**
The spacious aft cockpit is perfect for socializing, featuring a cozy lounge area to port and a dining space to starboard, all under the protection of a generous cabin top overhang for comfortable outdoor living.
With a commitment to sustainability and performance, the Eco Panther Series is poised to attract a new wave of sailors seeking lightweight, high-performance yachts that resonate with their environmental ethos.
