The Solaris Power 64 expands the brand's Long Range series and joins the still fresh 70. Dragoni Design Lab, 3 Studio and the Solaris Power design team left their signature on the 19.70 by 5.62 metre base. Three cabins plus crew accommodation are provided as standard, with the option of four guest cabins plus crew or an additional cabin without a crew area.
Propulsion is provided by two Volvo Penta D13 IPS 1200 engines, each with an output of 662 kilowatts and a cruising speed of 18 knots. As an alternative, IPS 1350 packages with 735 kilowatts are available, which then deliver up to 28 knots. The empty weight is around 36 tonnes with a draught of 1.75 metres. Tank capacities: 3,400 litres of diesel and 710 litres of fresh water.
70 centimetre wide side decks
According to the shipyard, the cockpit is one of the largest in its class and can be equipped with various sofas and sunbathing areas. The side decks measure up to 70 centimetres in width with an average railing height of 75 centimetres. A mobile aft bathing platform offers direct water access - even for the 3.45 metre long water jet tender, which parks lengthways in the garage. There is also plenty of storage space for water sports equipment. Solaris Power 44 in the test
The flybridge functions as an additional living space with a large sofa, sun loungers and dining area. A compact galley allows drinks and snacks to be prepared. The bow area features two opposing U-shaped sofas with two tables. Solaris and CNB watch together
It also works without stabilisers
The Solaris Power 64 is designed to lie calmly on the water when travelling in choppy seas and at anchor - gyro stabilisers are said to be superfluous. The hull shape has been precisely matched to the Volvo IPS drive, keeping fuel consumption low and delivering ideal handling characteristics both in planing mode and at low speed in displacement mode.
