The Z11 incorporates a personalised navigation and automation experience with Raymarine's Axiom 2 XL 19‘ and Axiom+ 9’ chartplotters, combined with YachtSense technology for digital switching and systems monitoring. Touchscreens offer intuitive control, while the RMK-6 and RMK-10 remote keypads allow precise management of navigation functions and onboard systems. The system also includes a Ray90 modular VHF radio and a CP100 CHIRP DownVision sonar, enhancing safety and connectivity.

Jamie Dery, vice president of Raymarine Americas, welcomed the collaboration, which demonstrates Raymarine's ability to provide customised solutions that set new standards in marine electronics. David Donovick, president of Zin Boats, said the project reflects their commitment to developing innovative electric propulsion technologies.

For Piotr Zin, founder of Zin Boats, the Z11 symbolises their mission to push the boundaries of electric boats, with potential applications across many platforms. This partnership promises to continue to innovate and transform the industry.
