Guido de Groot is developing together with Doug Sharp Design and Intec Marine a new type of semi-displacement hybrid motor yacht. To be built in aluminium, the 150 foot yacht features several novelties including the use of a small gas turbine generator for bringing the yacht on her top speed of 25 knots. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/142423/image/large-4456c96dc065ab7ec24e24c1fd915e48.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/142423">Two technical areas on board instead of one conventional engine room allows to create a layout with a large tender garage and a beach club area and more interior space for guests and crew on the lower deck. Propulsion is given by Voith Linear Jet drives in combination with 2 electro engines. The yacht is making use of 8 kW solar panels, 4 vertical axis wind turbines and 2 speed generators.Guido de Groot Design +31(0)71 566 3040 <a href="mailto:info@guidodegroot.com?subject=Guido%20de%20Groot%20Design%20on%20SuperYachtTimes.com">info@guidodegroot.com</a> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.guidodegroot.com/">www.guidodegroot.com</a>
