Self Drive Boat

Choosing a top-of-the-range seaworthy electric boat

The SSR19 2.0, is a top-of-the-line solar-powered autonomous electric boat, silent, odourless and with no additional fuel costs. Thanks to its photovoltaic panels, it ensures total autonomy all day long with a return of the boat possible at 100% charge. At night, its powerful batteries ensure several hours of navigation.

This elegant solar-powered catamaran offers a new lifestyle for a boat of this size. The large table in the centre of the boat is sheltered by an arbour, you go swimming from a large rear balcony and sunbathe on the foredeck. Although the boat is approved for up to 8 people and 560 kg, we limit to 6 people when it is your first rental to make it easier to get started. Since it's launching in 2016, it has been sailing without ever resorting to electricity from the port's infrastructure, proof of the safety provided by solar navigation.

Is it a self drive boat or do I need a motorboat licence?

The catamaran is registered as a license-free boat or self drive boat. The seaZen Academy adapts the training period according to your experience. Boat licence holders or sailboat skippers discover the subtlety of solar navigation. Beginners gain confidence at their own pace. 

How does the boat rental work?

Sailing on the largest and most comfortable catamaran for rental can be done easily while respecting the best safety practices. The minimum 1 hour practice includes you, at least 1 crew member of your group plus a guide from the seaZen academy. To save time the virtual tour allows you to start training from home. The deductible guarantee of 800 € is processed per credit card, after the first hour of practice, then you can go out alone.

For your first outing on your own from Beaulieu-sur-Mer, you will enjoy the bay of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat and anchor in front of the David Niven villa. If the training lasted one hour, count after 2X20 minutes of sailing and 1h20 of swimming.

Good to know: For the following outings, you automatically benefit from the advantages of the Boat-Club. Thus, you can dissociate the 2 stages by booking (1) the Accompanied Tour, (2) the Boat Club time slot.
