As the nation’s inaugural and exclusive team to participate in the prestigious Monaco Energy Boat Challenge, the team reflects ambition, perseverance, and a commitment to purposeful innovation. Through this international platform, Team Sea Sakthi showcases India’s pioneering engineering capability to the global audience. The team stands as a testament to the power of student-led initiatives in driving meaningful change and contributing to a more sustainable and responsible future.

Project

This year, Team Sea Sakthi aims to develop its electric catamaran by refining critical systems based on insights gained from previous iterations. A key emphasis is placed on strengthening the in-house electric propulsion system through focused performance optimisation, improved durability, and tighter system integration to ensure consistent, high-efficiency operation under demanding competitive marine conditions. Alongside drivetrain advancements, the catamaran’s cockpit structure is being upgraded through the integration of a new bio-mass–based fibre within the composite layup, enhancing durability and structural performance while maintaining lightweight characteristics. These targeted developments reflect a balanced approach to innovation and sustainability, enabling Team Sea Sakthi to progress through data-driven design while reinforcing its presence on an international platform for responsible marine engineering.
