Introducing the New Island Spirit 525 Catamaran with Electric Drive Option

DESIGNED TO INSPIRE

Island Spirit

The Island Spirit Catamaran Brand, three-time winner of the Top Ten Sail Magazine awards, is widely recognized for its spacious design and superior sailing performance. Originally manufactured and introduced in the United States in 1998, production was moved to Thailand in 2012 to provide competitive pricing while maintaining the highest build quality. Each Island Spirit Catamaran must complete a rigorous safety and quality inspection as well as a sea trial to ensure international CE standards are met. Island Spirit Catamarans can be customized to every customer’s specific needs in terms of equipment level and layout. Island Spirit Catamarans is now focusing on green energy boats and has launched the IS525 with an electric drive option! The launch is scheduled for the 2023 Annapolis sailboat show, though we are accepting pre-orders now – and because the manufacturing capacity is limited in the first year, only a few production slot remain available.

Therefore, we have developed a scalable E-Drive system that can be applied across all of our product offerings utilizing standard components, architecture and software.

In the development phase of the Island Spirit 525 we took into account designing for E-Drive from the very beginning. This covers many aspects of the design process including but not limited too:

Minimise the vessel weight through the exclusive use of composites and not use heavy marine plywood in the build.

Efficient hull design to minimise the power required to move the boat through the water.
