The Voyager V1040 Hybrid Explorer is a showcase of the greatest technologies in the field from around the world. No expense has been spared in making this the ultimate environmentally friendly vessel of its type, without compromise in performance and practicality for the Australian lifestyle.

Incorporating the best of everything:- Steyr Motors of Austria, Mastervolt Power of Holland, Lithium batteries, Kyocera Solar power, Full energy management system, Touch screen monitoring, Shore power Galvanic Isolator, 5kw 240v inverter, fully electric galley, VacuFlush toilet system, LED lighting, Teak cockpit, Stunning Makore wood and leather interior, etc, etc.

With its low drag semi-displacement hulls, and fully protected props, the Hybrid Explorer can travel extremely efficiently, and can safely glide into shallow waters with beaching not a problem. The unmatched catamaran ride and stability is legendary, while the twin engine maneuverability and safety is most reassuring.

Cruise along pollution free at up to 6knots on the twin 7kw electric drives producing little or no wake, or power up to 20knots with twin 140hp diesels when needed, using up to four times less petroleum fuel in a year than planing monohull.

Due to the support of the Queensland Government in the development, there is now a once only opportunity to purchase this remarkable vessel at a significantly reduced price.
