Rethinking Luxury at Sea: Energy-Conscious Innovation on a Catamaran

The MODX 70 GANANY is a revolutionary yacht that blends cutting-edge sailing performance with innovative renewable energy management available in Corsica, Sardinia and the French Riviera. By carefully selecting materials and integrating advanced systems, GANANY achieves complete autonomy and zero carbon emissions, setting a new standard for sustainable nautical excellence.

A catamaran built to eliminate dependency

The MODX 70 GANANY is not designed for dockside lifestyle sailing. It exists for those who want to cross distances, remain independent from marinas, and understand the mechanics behind modern offshore autonomy. Built in Brittany, France in 2024 by Ocean Development, GANANY represents a fundamental shift in what a luxury catamaran can be. This is not a yacht that simply reduces emissions; it removes them entirely.

100% Electric energy architecture

GANANY operates on a fully electric propulsion platform with zero operational CO₂ output. Her energy ecosystem is based on continuous regeneration rather than storage dependency. While under sail, integrated hydro-generators convert kinetic energy into usable power, while at anchor, more than seventy square metres of solar panels maintain the entire onboard electrical load. Even freshwater usage is optimised through a rainwater recovery system feeding the toilets, ensuring shore power is no longer part of the operational equation.

Aeroforce wings: Aerodynamics instead of horsepower

The two inflatable, retractable Aeroforce wings are a core part of the propulsion system. Fully automated, they increase aerodynamic efficiency by approximately thirty-five percent in light air and mixed sailing conditions. These wings deliver higher average passage speeds while dramatically reducing energy demand, particularly during motor-sailing, which fundamentally changes how the vessel behaves over long distances.

Silence as a new definition of comfort

Life aboard GANANY requires a different understanding of luxury. Without a generator running in the background, there is no vibration bleeding through the hulls at night and no fuel management during long stays at anchor. What replaces this is acoustic silence and operational endurance. Over two hundred square metres of living space connect the forward cockpit and aft deck into one uninterrupted platform, with four queen-sized cabins that remain practical for families, couples, or technical sailing crews.


Ready to sail?

GANANY is a fully operational MODX 70 proving that renewable energy sailing is no longer experimental.
