A vision of sustainable boating

MUVA boats are built around a simple yet powerful ethos: to redefine boating through eco-friendly innovation. Featuring fully electric drivetrains, MUVA boats are engineered for efficiency and environmental sustainability. With the Explorer, the brand aims to deliver a high-performance vessel that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing, while offering a greener alternative to traditional marine propulsion systems.

Built for versatility and performance

The MUVA Explorer is tailored to meet the needs of a wide range of boaters, from families seeking leisurely cruises to avid anglers looking for a quiet day on the water. Measuring 7.9 metres in length and 2.6 metres in width, the Explorer boasts a spacious deck with customisable seating arrangements, providing flexibility for various activities.

Cruising Speed: 24 km/h
Range: 75 km on a standard battery
Weight: 2,400 kg
Passenger Capacity: Up to 12 people

The MUVA Explorer’s lightweight yet durable aluminium construction is designed for resilience in challenging conditions, while its powder-coated and PPF-wrapped hulls enhance protection against wear and tear.

Advanced features for a memorable experience

At the heart of the MUVA Explorer’s design is a commitment to sustainability through innovation. It offers an advanced hydrofoil system, which lifts the front hulls out of the water during operation. This reduces drag, improves energy efficiency, and enhances speed and range. Whether cruising through serene waterways or entertaining guests on board, the hydrofoil technology promises smoother rides and optimal performance.

The Explorer also integrates a number of modern conveniences, including:

  • Electric Propulsion: Twin electric outboards for smooth, quiet operation and reduced maintenance.
  • Smart Systems: A user-friendly interface and integrated steering controls make navigation effortless.
  • Safety-First Design: A low centre of gravity, reinforced hull compartments, and fire-retardant battery modules ensure reliability and safety.

Comfort meets sustainability

MUVA Electric Boats offer interiors which feature ethically sourced materials, as well as blending refined aesthetics with practical functionality. The design thoughtfulness extends to other detail, including small but usable built-in bathroom facilities, integrated storage, and an immersive sound system for onboard entertainment.

In terms of charging, the MUVA Explorer supports CCS (Type 2) DC fast charging, allowing users to recharge quickly at home, marinas, or any compatible charging station.

Leading the charge in eco-friendly marine design

Living up to its eco-friendly ethos with a strong nod to sustainability, from its use of recycled aluminium and bio-resins to its alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the Explorer represents a pleasant step forward in green marine technology. The boat’s silent operation protects marine ecosystems, while its solar-compatible charging options reduce reliance on traditional energy sources.

For those of us who are eco-conscious, what’s not to like about these green-thinking features?
