The Silent 62 3-Deck has a length of 18.88 m, a beam of 8.99 m and a draft of 1.34 m

The new model can boast not only a spacious upper level instead of a flybridge, but a next-generation propulsion system powered by the sun 

The Silent 62 3-Deck is based on the popular Silent 60 model, but the overall length has increased by 60 cm. Instead of a conventional flybridge, now there is a “third deck”. It can be both open or completely enclosed. Moreover, there is a third option, when it is dedicated to the owner’s apartment.

The first Silent 62 3-Deck unit with a beam of 8.99 m and a draft of 1.34 m features an open skylounge on the third level, offering the guests an opportunity to get together and admire the panoramic views, have a meal or just relax in one of the lounge areas.

The saloon on the main deck is about 50 sq.m. In addition to the helm station, there is also a galley. The exterior spaces with various lounges are available both forward and aft.

Depending on the layout, the vessel can accommodate 10-12 guests in 5+1 cabins. 

The Silent 62 3-Deck has the same propulsion system as the two flybridge Silent 62 catamarans launched last year. This next-generation transmission implements the latest liquid cooled batteries, with higher energy density, greater capacity and faster charging rates, thanks to optimised thermal management.
