INNOVATION - The Bluefish
ZCC platform is enabling research for unmanned zero emission yachts. This concept vessel is based on a stable
SWASH
hull design proposed for development in the UK under license from patent GB2511731.
A design like this uses no
diesel fuel in
normal operation to monitor the oceans autonomously at relatively high
speeds of 7-10 knots continuous average, 24/7 and 365 days a year. This
is only possible with the unique energy
harvesting
(wind and solar) system. This vessel could pay for itself in bunker costs every 10 years. Fuel for thought for
fleet operators looking for ways to save money and clean up their act!
