  • Hydrau 360 Project: Gunboat 80 #2

    The Gunboat 80 #2 is a sailing catamaran combining performance, comfort and lightweight design. Hydraunautic contributed to the project through its Hydrau 360 range, designing a bespoke hydraulic architecture tailored to the yacht’s specific requirements.

    A bespoke hydraulic architecture for the Gunboat 80

    For this project, Hydraunautic was responsible for the design and manufacturing of the complete hydraulic system, from the overall architecture to the main components, including an aluminium tank, pumps and manifolds.

    The hydraulic architecture was developed with particular attention to system integration, weight reduction and overall installation optimisation.

    Hydrau 360: hydraulics and automation

    The project also includes the complete electrical architecture and control system, including the development of the PLC and HMI.

    This integrated approach enables the design of a lightweight, high-performance and optimised installation, combining hydraulics, electrical systems and automation within a single architecture.

    The Gunboat 80 #2 showcases Hydraunautic’s expertise in designing bespoke, fully integrated hydraulic systems for yachts.

    Hydrau 360 powering performance: a custom solution for a high-performance catamaran

    At Hydraunautic, every project is an opportunity to push the limits of performance, reliability, and integration. Our latest Hydrau 360 unit, developed for a high-performance 72-foot catamaran, perfectly illustrates this commitment.

    A premium, fully customized hydraulic unit

    Designed to meet the highest standards, this Hydrau 360 combines advanced engineering with high-end finishes:

    • A thermocoated tank, ensuring enhanced durability and corrosion resistance
    • Anodized distribution manifolds, for optimal performance and longevity
    • A fully stainless-steel rigid piping, replacing flexible hoses for increased reliability and a cleaner installation

    Every detail has been carefully considered to deliver both performance and long-term robustness.

    Power and efficiency at the core

    The unit is equipped with two 48VDC electric motors, providing the power required for demanding applications while maintaining efficiency and compactness.

    This configuration ensures smooth, precise, and responsive operation—perfectly aligned with the performance DNA of this boat.

    Tested, validated, ready to perform

    At Hydraunautic, a system is not just assembled—it is fully tested, validated, and delivered ready to operate.

    Each Hydrau 360 unit undergoes rigorous hydraulic testing prior to delivery, including:

    • Pressure settings
    • Flow rate measurements
    • Current and electrical performance checks
    • Automation system validation under real operating conditions

    These tests ensure that every system leaving our workshop is fully operational, reliable, and compliant with the highest quality standards.

    Tenderlift Group Synergy: A scale model to illustrate a shared vision

    At METSTRADE 2025, Tenderlift Group introduced a standout piece: a fully equipped sailing catamaran scale model featuring both Tenderlift and Hydraunautic technologies. More than a display item, it visually embodies how our two brands collaborate to deliver integrated, efficient onboard systems.Une maquette pensée pour représenter un bateau complet

    A model designed to reflect a fully equipped yacht

    The model showcases key systems from both entities:

    • Tenderlift:
      • Tenderlift Expand (Double platform lift)
      • Tender crane
      • Side doors
      • Cabin doors
    • Hydraunautic:
      • Hydraulic powerpack, automaton and HMI
      • Electro-hydraulic steering with force feedback
      • Cylinders for sail trim, anchor handling and other key functions

    Each component is placed to clearly demonstrate how it integrates into a real catamaran architecture.

    One powerpack for all systems: a decisive advantage

    Tenderlift Group is built on a strong idea: centralizing deck systems and hydraulic functions through a single powerpack.

    This approach offers major benefits for shipyards and owners:

    • Reduced costs — a single consultation, one powerpack, and fewer components
    • Reduced overall weight thanks to fewer components and hoses
    • Simplified maintenance through a single access point
    • Improved efficiency with better flow and pressure management
    • Harmonized integration between Tenderlift equipment and Hydraunautic systems

    In-house welded aluminium structure: craftsmanship on display

    The model is built on a fully aluminium structure, welded in-house with exceptional precision by our qualified welders.

    It highlights the high standards of workmanship across Tenderlift Group.

    A visual representation of our shared vision

    This scale model offers a clear insight into what Tenderlift Group brings to the marine industry: a fully integrated, unified and high-performance solution powered by the combined expertise of Tenderlift and Hydraunautic.

    A vision we are proud to share with shipyards worldwide.
