Successfully repower your boat with Weenav
Do you have a motorisation project ? Are you thinking of converting an existing combustion engine boat to electric or hybrid propulsion ? Weenav's design office is there to support you every step of the way, with a global, human and technical approach.
At Weenav, we believe that the transition to cleaner shipping should not be a constraint, but an opportunity for performance and innovation. Thanks to our expertise in on-board systems and electrical engineering, we offer a process structured around four main phases, from technical analysis to practical implementation.
1. Analysis of your boat's operation: a personalised energy diagnosis
It all starts with a detailed understanding of your boat and your real needs. We carry out a complete diagnosis based on several pillars :
- A detailed review of the boat's technical documents
- An energy balance sheet that takes into account consumption at sea and in port
- An analysis of uses: pleasure boating, transport, tourism, work
- The definition of typical operating days according to season, distance, on-board load and weather conditions
This preparatory work enables us to identify the constraints to be met, lay the foundations for the future propulsion system and optimise autonomy while meeting your operational objectives.
2. Technical design & recommendations: a system tailored to your project
On the basis of the analysis, our design office draws up a customised technical solution. At this stage, our team of engineers sizes the necessary equipment (motor, batteries, controllers, chargers, etc.) according to :
- The architecture of the boat
- The autonomy you want
- Regulatory requirements
- And specific operating conditions (type of navigation, frequency, duration, environment)
We also carry out a layout study to ensure optimum integration of the equipment on board. Finally, we anticipate the administrative and regulatory steps to come and define a roadmap for the smooth running of the project.
3. Drafting the regulatory file: on course for compliance
Navigating legally is an imperative, particularly in river and sea basins subject to strict standards. That's why we take care of compiling the necessary regulatory documentation:
- Drafting the technical file
- Declaration prior to starting work
- Identification of any changes required (after discussions with the relevant authorities)
- Follow-up of exchanges with the instructing department
This stage allows you to obtain the necessary navigation authorisations with complete peace of mind.
4. Personalised quotes and site coordination: from project to reality

The final stage is implementation. Our team draws up a consultation file for the service providers selected to work on the site (electricians, shipyards, suppliers). We support you in :
- Choosing technical partners
- Analysis of the quotes
- Site organisation
- And managing the works schedule
Our aim? To ensure that your boat can set sail in the best possible conditions, within budget, on schedule and in compliance with current standards.
