Baltic 100 Zemi Sailing Yacht

Zemi is also the third Baltic to be equipped with an electric propulsion system. Twin 129 kW Cummins generators provide grunt to a large bank of lithium-ion batteries that power an electric Danfoss motor. Baltic says the e-motor is quieter, cleaner, and smoother than traditional internal combustion mills. In fact, Zemi can cruise in “silent mode” sans emissions for long periods, according to the brand.

In addition, the yacht is equipped with twin rudders and a telescopic lifting keel with a 27-ton bulb that can reduce the draught from 20 feet to 13. It also has several headsail options that are suitable to different weather conditions.

Spearheaded by Andreas Martin-Löf, the interior features walnut and limestone veneers, sleek, modern furnishings, and cleverly integrated lighting. The main cockpit can be enjoyed in all conditions, with a fold-down spray hood and full-length removable bimini protecting guests from the elements. (Alternatively, the space can be left open for lounging in the sun.) Below deck lies a lounge, galley, and cabin for overnight journeys.

Another distinctive element of Zemi is McKeon trademark, wrap-over teak decking that runs from the bow right to the edge of the transom. The transom is expandable, too, meaning that the water is even easier to access from the swim platform. Also at the stern is a large garage that can hold a Williams tender.

Product Overview

This Malcolm McKeon all-carbon luxurious performance yacht is optimised to take the owner’s family and friends on a breath-taking itinerary of cruising and racing. After sea trials this summer she was scheduled to head first to Svalbard, then an Atlantic crossing via the Canary Islands, before competing in the St Barths Bucket, ahead of a Pacific crossing in 2024.

Zemi has a multitude of headsail options including a fixed furling J1 and J2, a detachable storm jib stay, a furling Code sail tacked forward of the J1 and a variety of A sails set off the fixed bowsprit, which is integral to the hull moulding. This arrangement enables a fast ‘change of gear’ to suit weather conditions.

The largely minimalist interior design is by Swedish architect Andreas Martin-Löf, with walnut used as the predominant timber, much of which is veneered over ultra lightweight honeycomb structures. This is also another yacht with a transom design that opens part of the aft deck to massively increase the bathing platform area. In this case it also has McKeon’s trademark wrap-over teak decking that continues onto the transom.

Electric propulsion is an increasingly popular option for this type of yacht and Zemi has a massively powerful 247kW Danfoss motor with a direct drive to a four-blade folding propeller. The lack of gearbox and associated hydraulics represents a significant weight saving, while hydrogeneration during sailing can develop a large amount of power.

Twin 129kW gensets provide a reliable backup and eliminate the range anxiety that might otherwise be associated with electric propulsion.
