The Rutland 1200 Marine Windcharger is Marlec Engineering's largest model for the marine sector and by far one of the most efficient wind turbines for boats and yachts on the market. The wind turbines, which have been popular with circumnavigators and long-distance sailors since 1978, are characterized by their high efficiency, high quality workmanship and virtually silent operation. The turbines are manufactured in the UK and are designed to generate electricity even at low wind speeds. Compared to the competition, the Rutland 1200 Marine Windcharger offers one of the most efficient performance curves.
The Rutland 1200 package also includes the corresponding MPPT charge controller (see technical specifications for more information).
Characteristics:

- Maximum available energy in the wind is converted into charging current via generator.
- Cool operation for high efficiency and reliability.
- Sealed to withstand weather conditions around the world.
- Included in the price: MPPT charge controller.
