M/Y PROJECT ELECTRA is the second 50m/164ft vessel from the 5000 Hybrid class with her Fast Displacement Hull Form and hybrid diesel and electric propulsion.
Based on the previous award-winning hull, superyacht HOME (YN 17850), PROJECT ELECTRA improves upon her sistership with the latest technological innovations for even greater performance and efficiency. In addition, the hybrid engine is quieter and more fuel efficient than a traditional diesel engine to make her even more beneficial to her owner.
