Atlantic Sea Hawk by Sauter Carbon Offset Design & Atlantic Motor Yacht

Sauter Carbon Offset Design and Atlantic Motor Yachts present the Atlantic Sea Hawk, a Hi-performance Zero Carbon 18 meter Cabin Cruiser with a top speed of 50 knots.

Designer Richard Sauter commented “Her state of the art Solar Hybrid technology addresses the issue of Global warming pollution by achieving a 50 to 100% reduction in fuel consumption and GHG emissions. The Atlantic Sea Hawk combines a plug-in Sunpower solar array with an Allison Hybrid system to produce the cleanest marine propulsion system in the world”.

Allison Transmission, a unit of General Motors, in partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy, developed this hybrid system under the DOE’s. Advanced Heavy Hybrid Propulsion System (AH2PS) Program.
