Personal Watercraft Insurance, Superyachts Clean Up in Drive for Efficiency
Sunday, Mar. 10th 2013 12:00 PM
Superyachts are built for luxury. Sustainability and energy efficiency have tended not to be among their top design requirements. “Superyachts are the most backward form of transportation on Earth. Even roller skates are more efficient,” said the naval architect Richard Sauter, head of design at Sauter Carbon Offset Design in Bali, Indonesia.
Steel, the material in which most luxury yachts have traditionally been built, “is the worst hull you can have,” added Mr. Sauter, whose concept design for a sustainable super luxury yacht, Ocean Supremacy, envisages an epoxy composite hull and a 9-megawatt solar hybrid propulsion system.
