Racing hydro generatorThe RACING hydro generator is the patented and industrialized version of the prototypes developed for the round the world race Vendée Globe 2008. This model is particularly adapted to performing racing yachts.
SpecificationsEffective on a range of speed from 7 to 25 knots, it is equipped with a variable pitch propeller electronically controlled by an autonomous and miniaturized processor: the drag is minimized and the energy output optimized. A hydraulic pump allows the control of the variable pitch. The assembly is carried out on the transom thanks to lifting system like rudder.

TestimonialsJean-Yves CHAUVE “I installed a Watt&Sea Cruising hydrogenerator on my catamaran. The assembly to adapt it onto my boat, is simple. Every day, I am delighted by the effectiveness of this energy source, largely compensating all the electrical needs on board : pilot, electronics, fridge, freezer, dessalinisator, etc. Moreover, it is a clean, quiet and autonomous energy source, like the navigation at sea, this natural environment that need to be preserved.”  Jean-Baptiste L'OLLIVIER “I used the hydrogenerator, during the first leg of the Transquadra Race 2011. It enabled me to save my place of second of the leg. Indeed, my principal energy source, the engine with a tank of 50L was defused when sailing starboard (pipette of gas oil admission badly placed). Without the hydrogenerator, I will have succeeded to charge only when the boat was flat… which is awkward for a monohull. From Cap Finistere to Madeira, my Watt&Sea hydrogenerator was immersed permanently. Sometimes I had too much current, which obliged me to let all equipment switched on even for the all day….” Bruno Croisel - A31 “33 Yachting Sport” Happiness! Watt&Sea hydrogenerator is finally the solution to our problems of energy in solitary races. Nothing anymore to manage now! We are now sailing always with surplus energy even when the most consuming equipment is under operation. Cheer to have developed this simple, effective and completely ecological solution! ….
