I spent 200 days building a SOLAR EXPLORER — this is the Helios-11.
From sketches to sea trials, every part of this project has been built by hand — a self-powered yacht designed to travel anywhere using only the sun. This video takes you inside the process: the construction, the upgrades, the systems, and the lifestyle that comes with creating your own off-grid vessel.
Helios-11 isn’t just a boat — it’s a test of how far freedom, technology, and craftsmanship can go when combined with patience and vision.
In this episode:
– Finishing touches and systems setup
– Interior and deck walkthrough
– First launch preparations
– Off-grid energy and solar array overview
– Reflections on what 200 days of building have taught me
Watch until the end to see how the project came together and what’s next on the journey.
