Intuitive navigation
The intuitive interface, accessible to all, allows you to adapt spontaneously to the wind, drift and current – all challenging factors with which you normally have to contend. By choosing to navigate with BlueNav, users benefit from a simple and effective navigation companion.Docking made easy
Your maneuvers will never be the safe thanks to 360° thrusting and high reactivity thanks to our joystick. In docking mode, you’ll soon be able to switch quickly from pure rotation to sideways glide. Use the joystick to precisely control your thrust and compensate for external disturbances such as wind and current, thanks to the drift-free docking mode (feature coming soon).Biomimetic technology that enhances your nautical performance
Enhanced performance through biomimetics
Inspired by nature, our electric motor technology uses biomimicry principles, such as whale fin design, to improve efficiency and reduce energy consumption. This innovation optimises the thrust/power ratio, delivering superior performance while consuming less energy.Easy installation that adapts to all sailboats
Our electric motors for sailboats are meticulously engineered to seamlessly fit your vessel, whether it is brand new or undergoing a refit. The installation process is straightforward and requires no structural modifications. Our versatile motors can be mounted in various ways: transom-mounted, integrated into the hull or mounted under the hull, providing maximum flexibility to accommodate the specific needs and configurations of different sailboats, no matter the design or age of your vessel. Additionally, the hubless design reduces wear and simplifies maintenance, ensuring long life and optimal reliability.3 electric propulsion systems for sailing
