Available also in an S version (sport or sedan, as you like), the 53 can venture onto inland waterways, opening up new cruising grounds. Like all powercats produced by Iliad, the 53 is a beachable cruising boat, solidly built in a foam/vinylester sandwich. New for the 2025/2026 model year is the development of a hybrid propulsion system called OffGrid Hybrid, which incorporates electric motors, a powerful lithium battery bank, and 7 kWp of solar panels. Note that this technology, which is expected to deliver fuel savings of 75%, will be offered on all the models across the range.
