Sessa Marine C44
About this yacht
The Sessa Marine C44 represents a thoughtful evolution in sustainable cruising, designed for owners who value elegant simplicity and environmental responsibility. This 13.85-meter motor yacht combines classical aesthetics with forward-thinking electric propulsion, creating a vessel that's equally suited to short-handed coastal exploration and comfortable overnight passages. At the heart of the C44 lies an electric drive system complemented by solar panels integrated seamlessly into the flush decks. This configuration generates sufficient power for conscientious cruising, with house loads running entirely on electricity from hydro propulsion and solar energy when conditions allow. Shore power provides an additional charging option, while a generator can be installed for extended range if desired. The yacht's moderate displacement and manageable size make her particularly efficient, maximizing the potential of her sustainable power systems. As a cruising-focused design, the C44 offers enhanced beam and interior volume compared to pure performance yachts. The wider cockpit provides generous space for entertaining and line handling, while the accommodations below deliver genuine liveaboard comfort for up to eight guests. Despite her electric drive, the yacht maintains all expected amenities—air-conditioning, heating, induction cooking, electric winches, and numerous optional upgrades. Real-world experience validates the C44's capabilities. One owner regularly cruises for weeks throughout British Columbia on electric power alone, with solar panels in both the deck and mainsail, carrying zero hydrocarbons aboard. Another, based in Mexico, uses her primarily for day sailing and short coastal trips with family and friends, also without backup generation. The C44's design language draws inspiration from 1930s classic yachts—long overhangs, low profiles, refined lines—updated with contemporary underwater profiles for modern performance. This motor yacht embodies a timeless approach to cruising that prioritizes sustainable operation without compromising comfort or style.
