From a Shark-Shaped Superyacht to a Garbage-Eating Catamaran: 7 Bonkers Boat Concepts Debuting This Year.
… a Garbage-Eating Catamaran
🌊 Excited to share our groundbreaking boat, CIRCULAR WAVES, featured in Robb Report’s latest article on visionary boat concepts – From a Shark-Shaped Superyacht to a Garbage-Eating Catamaran: 7 Bonkers Boat Concepts Debuting This Year
— it’s a floating research platform on a mission to combat ocean pollution. Showcasing a sustainable future for yachting.
J. David Weiss is known for his out-of-the-box yacht designs, and his latest concept Circular Waves is no different. The 262.5-foot hybrid power catamaran is a floating research platform that aims to find sustainable solutions to the ocean’s trash problem. It uses a “scoop” between the hulls to collect plastics, fishing nets and brown algae, which is then processed onboard and converted into biofuels in its laboratory to power the yacht’s electric and hydrogen systems. Featuring a media room, submarine, two tenders, and a skydeck for landing drones and a helicopter, the concept forms part of a nonprofit organization founded in Monaco in partnership with the Technical University of Munich.
