Ocean Eco 60 is an electric powered cruising catamaran built by Alva Yachts. It sits in the electric yacht segment with an 18.4 m (60 ft) twin-hulled body type and solar-assisted propulsion. Dual electric motors drive it for cruising and long voyages.
Battery and range data for Ocean Eco 60 are not published in a consistent format, but versions of the model use large onboard battery banks (from about 150 kWh up to 280 kWh) paired with integrated solar panels on the roof to support long range cruising. Full electric versions rely on shore power charging and solar input during sailing. Solar arrays can produce power while underway, extending time between dock charging.
Pricing is typically on request from brokers and builders because custom build-outs and options affect cost, but Ocean Eco 60 sits at a premium level above mainstream EV cars. It suits buyers focused on long range electric cruising and off-grid sea travel. Other models from Alva include the Ocean Eco 60 Coupé and the larger Ocean Eco 90 Explorer. Alternative electric yachts include Sunreef Power 60 ECO and Silent Yachts 55 E, which also use electric propulsion and solar support. A comparison often made is between Ocean Eco 60 and the Ocean Eco 60 Coupé variant for design and deck layout differences.
