Archipelago Yachts has announced the successful completion of the design for its breakthrough zero-carbon leisure vessle, the Archipelago zero.63, in conjunction with Chartwell Marine. The Archipelago zero.63 uses environmentally friendly aluminium materials designed to minimise ecological effects. One notable characteristic of this watercraft is its large methanol tank, which holds 10,000 litres and enables an estimated range of around 2,500 nautical miles.
This attribute enhances its versatility and makes it a suitable choice for those seeking extended expeditions. This vessel offers a high level of luxury, with four spacious rooms that can accommodate up to eight guests. Each cabin has private ensuite amenities, providing a pleasant and environmentally aware sailing experience.
"Our vessel design uses methanol-to-hydrogen reforming technology to power a modern and attractive, silent, zero-carbon 63" leisure vessel. The yacht will be state of the art for zero-carbon technology, built from low-impact aluminium, using recycled materials wherever possible. There are plenty of electric leisure vessels in the market which can travel short distances quickly or long distances slowly, but none can perform in high sea states, cross oceans, and be zero-carbon all at the same time," said Dr Stephen Weatherley, founder and managing director of Archipelago Yachts.
