Team Sea Sakthi

  The twilight sun cast a warm shade over Ukkadam Lake, painting the sky in hues of fire and gold—a celestial embrace heralding the monumental day ahead. The last day of Phase 1 testing had arrived, carrying the weight of our journey so far and the promise of what lay beyond. This was more than a test— it was an unyielding pursuit of excellence. The air vibrated with excitement, and the waters of Ukkadam Lake seemed to pause, as if recognizing that something extraordinary was about to unfold. The anticipation reached its peak as Yali 4.0 stood poised on the water’s edge, ready for a defining moment. Under the command of Kamalikka, our first female pilot, the boat was not just about to sail—it was about to make history. Cheers echoed across Ukkadam Lake as she gripped the helm, embodying the spirit of perseverance and breaking barriers with every ripple in the water. With unwavering focus, Kamalikka took the helm, and as Yali 4.0 eased into the water, a hush fell over the team. The ...

After the adrenaline-filled trials of Day 2, Day 3 was all about fine-tuning and reinforcing our progress. The excitement of seeing Yali 4.0 in action still lingered, but we knew that true success lay in perfecting every detail. With telemetry data in hand, we carefully analyzed our boat’s performance, identifying areas that needed improvement—propulsion calibration, steering refinements, and overall system efficiency. System diagnostics took the center stage. The reverse contactor issue was addressed, and the steering system was recalibrated after its reversed configuration from the previous day. Every bolt was tightened, every wire checked, ensuring every component was in its best shape. It wasn’t just about fixing issues; it was about making Yali 4.0 sharper, stronger, and more resilient. The afternoon was dedicated to predictive maintenance and simulation-based testing, allowing us to anticipate potential challenges before heading back into the waters. Every small refinement brough...

  TESTING  DAY – II: With the triumph of Day 1 still fresh in our minds, we stepped into Day 2 with renewed determination. The morning air carried a quiet intensity as we began with rigorous static checks and ground runs, fine-tuning every aspect of Yali 4.0 for precision and performance. By noon, the most anticipated moment had arrived-  Yali 4.0 made its grand entrance into the water. The boat, a culmination of months of relentless effort, slid gracefully onto the lake, its sleek form cutting through the surface like it had always belonged there. The excitement was electric as all eyes locked onto our creation, ready to witness its maiden run. With our captain at the helm, Yali 4.0 surged forward, carving through the water with remarkable agility. It was a moment where skill met technology, a perfect harmony between man and machine, pushing Yali 4.0 to its limits with every passing second. As it responded to every command, there was a sense that the boat had long b...

 TESTING DAY 1: As the first golden rays of dawn stretched across the sky, we arrived at Ukkadam Lake, hearts pounding with excitement. This wasn’t just another morning—it was the prologue to a long-awaited moment, a milestone built with tireless dedication. The day had finally arrived—Yali 4.0 would begin its transformation from vision to reality. With eager anticipation, we got to work, assembling the very heart of our dream. With unwavering focus, we turned our attention to the hull, the foundation upon which Yali 4.0 would rise. Piece by piece, we meticulously brought the structure to life, ensuring every component was aligned to perfection. The first major milestone was setting it afloat for initial checks. The hull sat perfectly on the water, stable and buoyant—an encouraging sign of things to come. With the hull successfully afloat, we moved on to the core integrations—assembling the cockpit, battery, and Power Distribution Unit (PDU). Each connection was carefully scrutiniz...
