Following a stint workingon a
very large superyacht, I realised
how completely fascinated I was by
how boats functioned and looked.
In 20 years, design aestheticswill
evolve around new environmentally
conscious technology. Ideas such
as surfaces being made from
solar cells to harness the sun’s
energy, will influence the shape
of superstructures, or clear glass
will be a solar panel. For years
we’ve had wristwatches that power
themselves by the movement of our
hand, so why not draw energy
from waves or the movement
of a boat when under way?
Our generation wants to
feelconnected. We want new
experiences, to feel involved, but
we also want peace. Yachting
will answer these needs.
