Pioneering prototype
Setting a new standard in electric boating
Our journey began with the Optima e10, a 10-metre masterpiece that has redefined what’s possible in electric boating. This prototype has quickly become a symbol of innovation, celebrated for its cutting-edge design, exceptional craftsmanship, and unparalleled range of up to 150 nautical miles. In 2023 the Optima e10 became the first ever electric boat to circumnavigate the Isle of Wight. For the e10 and her crew this non-stop voyage was a relaxing cruise covering 55 nautical miles (102 km) and only cost £20 in electricity to recharge.
A new era
At Optima Yachts, we’re not just keeping up with change - we’re driving it. We are at the forefront of creating a cleaner, quieter and more promising future on the water.
Our technology is setting new benchmarks in the marine industry, combining range and craftsmanship with eco-friendly design. We are dedicated to revolutionising boating by introducing a new era of sustainable luxury. With our commitment to innovation and the environment, we are reshaping the future of yachting.
Electric power
Our journey into electric boating is driven by a relentless pursuit of excellence and sustainability. Central to this is our progressivetechnology combined with ultra-efficient advanced hull forms to reduce energy consumption and increase range. Propulsion isn’t just about power - it’s about efficiency and precision. By integrating this cutting-edge technology, we ensure that every Optima yacht delivers exceptional comfort, impressive range, and an outstanding luxury cruising experience.
Approach
Our approach to design is equally groundbreaking. We employ sophisticated computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis to craft hulls that are not only sleek and stylish but also remarkably energy-efficient. This careful process allows us to optimise every aspect of our yacht’s hydrodynamics, reducing energy consumption and enhancing overall comfort for passengers.
Looking ahead
The e14 represents the next leap forward. This model will expand on the e10’s success with enhanced capabilities and even greater efficiency. By continuing to innovate and refine our technologies, we are not only meeting current demands but also anticipating the future of electric marine transportation.
Our yachts
The Optima e10 and the upcoming e14 are examples of our technological expertise. The e10, our 10-metre prototype, has set new benchmarks in electric boating with its stabilised hull and spacious, luxury-oriented design. It seamlessly integrates advanced technology with user centric-features.
