Abstract

Indonesia as a maritime country has extraordinary marine tourism potential. On the other hand, the development of eco-tourism boats is still limited. The objective of this study is to investigate the design of diesel-electric hybrid propulsion system for a tourist boat with capacity of 10 passengers. The design of eco-tourism boats considers a trimaran hull using hybrid diesel-electric motor propulsion with an overall length of 12 meters and a block coefficient of 0.4. The performance of the proposed eco-tourism boat was investigated by a simulation model to obtain the required power and stability criteria. The simulation result shows the proposed eco-tourism boat can achieve the desired service speed of 13 knots with the required power is 390 kW.
