Engine Overview The 44 Hybrid’s groundbreaking propulsion utilizes an external parallel hybrid system engineered in the UK and has proven successful in the marine industry for over fifteen years. Hybrid Marine 40 HP Yanmar Parallel hybrid system, shaft drive (1.25” – 3.18cm shafts) located midships in a sound-shielded compartment. Each electric motor generates 6kW of power, providing a total charging capability of 12kW. This setup allows the 40kW Victron Lithium battery bank to be recharged in 2-3 hours. In comparison, most alternators output about 1.5kW individually or 3kW when both engines are running. The hybrid marine system allows for a 400% faster recharge than alternators. 640 watts of regeneration while sailing at 7kts. An optional remote control controls both electric motors anywhere on the boat, which is particularly useful while deploying and retrieving the anchor.

Engine room blowers take heat from the engine rooms. Full engine instrumentation panel includes push-button engine start and integrated gauges for engine temperature, water temperature, oil pressure, and tachometer/hour meter. Dual Racor fuel filters – inline, vacuum gauges on top of the filter; each engine.

Twin 90-gallon aluminum diesel fuel tanks mounted mid-ship below the water line with two fuel deck inlets located at mid-ship. Fuel transfer pump with piping to pump fuel between the fuel tanks. Digital fuel level gauges located at the helm.

Spares kit, including filters, impellers, belts, etc.
