Codenamed Seabreeze, the design includes a host of features to attract premium-end cruise guests while combining the sustainability of sail and a 4m draft, in a 104.5m length ship with access to shallow waters. Dual hulls counteract listing under sail to maintain stability and comfort for 200 guests on board.
Using a market-ready solution, four 50m high foldable sails would be mounted on 6m high bases on deck to capture zero emission wind. Engines running on green bio-methanol would sustain hotel operations and – if wind was insufficient – the main propulsion, although the ship would also be enabled with a hybrid drive to incorporate silent running on battery power.
