Introducing the most advanced electric chase vessel, the Sialia 59 Loft

November 28, 2023

Sialia Yachts, a leader in eco-luxury yachting, is proud to unveil its latest eco-friendly vessel, the Sialia 59 Loft.

 

The Sialia 59 Loft is a ground-breaking, multi-functional electric superyacht chase vessel that is not only sustainable but also offers superb onboard comfort.

 

“Not only does the Sialia 59 Loft replace the need for yacht owners to have multiple single-purpose tenders, but it also enables any yacht to improve its operations and carbon footprint,” explains Ivo Hagemans, Sales and Marketing Director at Sialia.

 

“This is achieved through the Loft’s cutting-edge design, which elegantly combines three distinct functions into a single yacht: a tender, a chase boat, and a generator,” Hagemans adds.

 

At night, the Loft truly excels. The various technologically advanced systems enable the Sialia 59 Loft to operate silently and emission-free, providing electric power overnight for peaceful stays at anchor. 

Key highlights include:

  • Tranquil Nights: The Loft concept guarantees peaceful nights on board, devoid of disruptive noise, fumes, or vibrations.
  • Easy Integration: Seamless integration without the need for new systems on the yacht, eliminating the need for additional class approvals.
  • Adaptive Efficiency: Swiftly adapts to sustainable energy sources, guaranteeing uninterrupted yacht operations.
  • Instant Implementation: Installation without the inconvenience of a refit, preserving valuable onboard space.

 

Onboard the Sialia 59 Loft

 

From a design perspective, one of the most enchanting spaces aboard the yacht is "The Nest," which represents the heart of the boat. The Nest offers breathtaking panoramic views and immerses passengers in the Loft's serene performance. The bow area smoothly blends with the main cockpit, unveiling a radiant lounge, a generously appointed day head, and a guest-serving barwhile maintaining a seamless connection with the surrounding environment.

 

The Sialia 59 Loft's aft deck transforms into a versatile beach club, serving as an ideal setting for watersports, leisurely relaxation, or provisioning trips for the crew.  

State-of-the-art green technology

 

On the technical front, the Sialia Loft features cutting-edge technologyshowcasing Sialia's proprietary battery solutions and a sophisticated Ship Management System (SMS). Complementing this is the powerful Ampros electric propulsion system, a staple in every Sialia unit. Owners gain the capability to monitor and command the yacht's operations from any corner of the globe.

 

The boat can recharge its batteries using sustainable sources, and this power can be utilized to supply the mothership with energy.

The Loft is versatile in using a diverse range of sustainable fuels for propulsion and generating power for the mothership,” Hagemans explains.

 

“Thanks to the onboard hydrogen storage and fuel cell, the Loft can silently produce power and generate significant amounts of H2O. Moreover, the onboard range extender is HVO diesel-ready, enabling the loft to complete long-distance passages at cruising speeds, recharge its batteries, and provide the mothership with electricity, all while maintaining low emissions,” Hagemans adds.
