Amper Age electric Yacht
Amper Age is a concept of electric yacht made in collaboration with naval engineers of AMETA company (St. Petersburg, Russia) and yacht designer Max Zhivov.
​
We have created another architectural type of vessel that combines the comfort and space of a small house with the seaworthiness of a coastal yacht.
​
A traditional yacht does not provide home-level comfort and a standard houseboat is limited in its seaworthiness and critically depends on weather conditions.
​
The hull of the yacht is supposed to be made of marine aluminum alloy which will provide the vessel with durability and strength without a significant increase in displacement taking into account the weight of a battery. The superstructure of composite sandwich will allow excellent thermal insulation and freedom of shaping with a small weight.
​
The big area of the glazing more typical for houseboats than for yachts provides a true enjoyment of the surrounding views while traveling.
The layout of the yacht is designed for a comfortable stay of 4-6 persons in two or three cabins.
​
The interior in the bow consists of a control post, a kitchen unit and a dining table with an encircling sofa which can be transformed into a bed.

In the aft part of the yacht is located the owner's cabin with a full double bed, wardrobe and desk for comfortable work with a laptop. From the bed through a huge panoramic window opens a fantastic panorama of the water expanses.
​
The sauna and shower unit with toilet are located in the middle part of the yacht. It provides comfortable and independent use from the bow and stern salons. The full-size sauna allows two additional beds if necessary.
​
On the upper deck there is a large space for outdoor recreation - sunbathing on two huge sofas comfortably covered from the wind by the side walls of the deck fence. Here you can install a grill, a water slide or consoles for transporting an inflatable boat.
​
The ship's power plant includes two electric motors, a battery pack, solar panels and a small auxiliary diesel generator in a special soundproof casing to provide energy at peak loads on long cruises and when using an electric sauna. And all this without the noise and exhaust of a gasoline engine in absolute acoustic comfort where nothing disturbs the sounds and smells of the surrounding nature!
