FUTURE-PROOFING TECH

From unfolding screens and universal internet connectivity to ‘green technologies’, the latest design technologies are tempting owners back to the shipyards to upgrade their yachts, whilst also inspiring more ground-breaking yacht concepts than ever.

Whilst Feadship has committed to delivering emission-free yachts by 2025 and an emission-free construction process by 2050, we have seen many other ground-breaking designs. For example, the 80m Artefact saves 30% of energy and emissions – a result of solar panels, a hybrid engine and a wastewater recycling system. Whilst the 84m White Rabbit uses 40% less power to hit top speeds of up to 18 knots with its hybrid diesel-electric propulsion system.

Leading the way with inspiring future trends and design, Monaco Yacht Show 2022 merged The Yacht Design & Innovation Hub with the Design Gallery. Launched in 2021, the hub offers future yacht owners a unique experience in the world of superyacht design.
