DSe 12m Hybrid
Many people consider ALL powercats weird. If it weren't for a few brave
pioneers unafraid to be different, we'd all be cavemen.
Personally, I'm fascinated by the DSe hybrid and I wish them great success!
They're clearly ahead of their time. Fifty years from now, this could well
be the shape of most cruising boats.
I just hope they have the tenacity (and finances) to pull it off. I also
salute the early buyers. They will, no doubt, participate in the development
of this green technology. They are pioneers as well!

Do the deck house ports come with sea shutters? Where does one sun bathe? Is it okay to walk on the solar panels?

discussion about the boat and concept.

In that vein, the first thing that disturbed me was the view from the helm. The bows are not visible. A big no no for me.
Second look at the systems, batteries, electric motors, generators and the mass of solar and you have fuel for the generators too. To much to go wrong.
A simple diesel or sail assistance is so much simpler.
Have had both a power cat and a power Trimaran, and simplicity is the first function that form must follow.
