On the propulsion side she has an efficient alloy mast and boom fully battened deep roach main, single line main reefing in the boom, roller furling headsail, and furling screecher on the prodder. A para-spinnaker finishes off her downwind capability. A simple, fast, and efficient rig.
Engine power comes from two 20 kW electric motors and a single 80 HP shaft-drive with folding props set comfortably forward for easy access from inside the hulls. This hybrid system will power all the equipment and air conditioning. There are large water and fuel tanks to ensure that the vessel is fully self-sufficient while away from the dock.
..”The final day threw us some curved balls, 25 knots of breeze – We saw 38 knots at one stage, rising swell with 4 metre sets then we had to navigate a reef passage with 5 knots of outgoing current with over falls.
With both engines and one head sail Zero handled everything with ease, surfing a wave over the worst of the over falls.
We are currently heading south down the Queensland coast and enjoying the calmer conditions, we constantly have people cruise past and comment what a beautiful looking vessel she is. Functional and beautiful.”
