The world of competitive sailing can in fact register a new goal: the Dutch organization <strong>Watersportverbond<\/strong> will present its first hydrogen coach boat. For the uninitiated, the coach boat is the vessel that accompanies a racing boat, or trains a single crew, and carries adequate lifesaving and safety equipment. It will therefore be emission-free, and it will be possible to admire it at the 2023 World Sailing Championships in The Hague, precisely in the Netherlands.The boat in question is the H2C and is equipped with a <strong>Torqeedo Deep Blue<\/strong> electric motor, synonymous with sustainability and performance.<br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_76 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.deutzmag.com\/en\/the-first-hydrogen-dinghy-on-the-water-thanks-to-torqeedo\/#The_features_of_the_hydrogen_coach_boat\" >The features of the hydrogen coach boat<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.deutzmag.com\/en\/the-first-hydrogen-dinghy-on-the-water-thanks-to-torqeedo\/#The_power_of_Deep_Blue_50R_outboard_motor\" >The power of Deep Blue 50R outboard motor<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.deutzmag.com\/en\/the-first-hydrogen-dinghy-on-the-water-thanks-to-torqeedo\/#Less_carbon_during_competitions\" >Less carbon during competitions<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.deutzmag.com\/en\/the-first-hydrogen-dinghy-on-the-water-thanks-to-torqeedo\/#Leveraging_sustainable_energy_becomes_a_real_mission\" >Leveraging sustainable energy becomes a real mission<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_features_of_the_hydrogen_coach_boat\"><\/span>The features of the hydrogen coach boat<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/hrqaIQnaQ-FuEEl1xIRRaHXG_qMBO_FBmp7p38x61v9s7yx-b6_B3hB-7Lb81t9Q5864UNZdtjlTw_943cSgHW4QA03TqPe6X7xlU2oUNe7A5VruRu3OY4HZqkNrvgqI4AhV9ILDtMK7Ry0wLAPuaw\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption><em><em>The first hydrogen coach boat in action in open water.<\/em><br><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The H2C boat was developed by the Dutch start-up <strong>H2 Marine Solutions<\/strong>, capable of giving life to a project made up of collective efforts.

The boat has an additional <strong>hydrogen<\/strong> capacity of 51 kWh and features a thoughtful energy management system to increase performance and level of control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to the hydrogen fuel cell as a range extender, the H2C can guarantee a minimum of 5 hours of operation on water. During navigation, it will be possible to reach a maximum speed of 45 km\/h and move without the emission of sounds or polluting agents.Overall it is therefore a revolutionary boat, six meters long, which will be able to <strong>offer maximum support to the athletes<\/strong> during their training or the competitions themselves.<br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Less_carbon_during_competitions\"><\/span>Less carbon during competitions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/s2_sIWV-4B6z9_7SdJ_e5e0iytUi6Ee97MMPU9jnZHiL7ITxaXy1F4kOWk0nEGZUcs9U6tPhCF-tHMiykTEJZ4lEwRyH4ZbPeXDmErlKx0eE1sXX4RPrcaPJByiddo49KMWrzlaWh98OWPIvHeLzrA\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption><em><em>Close-up of the H2C coach boat out of the water.<\/em><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Being able to expand the market for greener shipping is a central goal not only for <strong>Torqeedo<\/strong> but also for De Stille Boot.

A project that could thus lead to zero-emission regattas by 2030.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea of the H2C comes from an intuition of the Dutch sailing coach Jaap Zielhuis and among the many well-known names who have collaborated to make the project possible, there is also Zephyr.
