Introduced by the US company Seaboater Yachts at the end of 2012, the Seaboater 787 Kiteboat yacht concept represents a radical new design. Luxury yacht Seaboater 787 Kiteboat is a fully new concept that incorporates the features of catamarans as a monohul vessel in the hull construction way. Propulsion is a radically new vision, too, by using 100% kite wind power.
Goran Pinjusic is the designer of the Seaboater 787 Kiteboat yacht. The propulsion is by fully electrical engines with electricity collected from a kite, which is in turn connected to a specially adjusted generator. In the electric mode, a smaller kite is used. Large kites have the towing power and are used if the wind comes from the right direction. This is truly a kiteboating concept, and Seaboater yachts are fully focusing their own activities in that kiteboating direction.
