The Millikan M10 at anchor in the evening light

The boat

Millikan M10

A 10-metre solar electric catamaran, designed for slow, quiet days at sea.

Solar

Solar panels cover the roof and, at anchor, two side wings. They recharge the batteries during your outing.

Electric

Two electric motors, no fuel, no exhaust. Nothing to smell, nothing in the water behind us.

Silent

Under way you talk at normal voice. At anchor you hear the water — and the music only if you want some.

Comfortable

Shade under the roof, cushioned benches front and aft, two swim platforms, a head with shower.

Photographs: Millikan Boats. Length 9.99 m, beam 3.40 m (5.85 m with wings open), two 20 kW electric motors, 41 kWh of batteries — manufacturer data.
