Wider Pajot Eco 153

16.7 metres of beam on a 47-metre length is what shapes Wider Pajot Eco 153's layout: width that becomes cabin and living space rather than length for its own sake. Wider Yachts is building her now, for delivery in 2027, as a hybrid sailing yacht designed to run in a zero-emission mode.

Build and provenance

Wider Yachts is building Wider Pajot Eco 153 in aluminium, hull and deck both, with yachtsman Marc Pajot part of the design and development team. Delivery is due in 2027, so a buyer takes an interest in a yacht still under construction rather than one already afloat.

Layout and accommodation

Twelve guests are accommodated in six cabins aboard a yacht of 480 gross tons, tonnage that gives her salon and cockpit areas room to spread rather than compete with cabin space below.

Performance and engineering

A hybrid propulsion system built around Danfoss Editron drive technology gives Wider Pajot Eco 153 a 12-knot cruise and a 16-knot top speed, with a zero-emission mode that lets her run on stored power alone when required. A draft of 5.5 metres asks for depth at anchor, water suited to open bays rather than shallow inshore moorings.

On deck and at anchor

A beach club gives guests direct access to the water, her one confirmed deck amenity beyond the interior living spaces described above.

Where she lies and how to see her

Wider Pajot Eco 153 lies in Italy, with her build under way there ahead of a 2027 delivery. A viewing is arranged by Boatcrowd and attended by us in person, and a survey and sea trial follow once an offer is accepted.
