‘Electra’ is a one-off. This boat was carefully and individually put together in The Netherlands using an aluminium GALA hull, a double 63kWh Kreisel battery configuration and a 120HP equivalent EVOY Breeze outboard.

Having successfully completed the approx. 1700nm journey to circumnavigate Great Britain via the Caledonian Canal (including three stops in Northern Ireland) Electra has a proven track record in the changeable sea conditions of British coastal waters. 

Offered for sale now to the European workboat and UK leisure boat market, Electra is also ideal as a club safety boat, allowing instruction without the background noise of an engine. The silent electric motor is a game changer and the raised deck space behind the seats is ideal for hauling people and items onboard, and the weight of the boat means it is stable in rough sea conditions.
