THE WORLD'S MOST EXTREME SUPERYACHT DESIGNS!!! 

Well over a decade ago Solucar in Abengoa Spain had a power generation system comprised of parabolic solar trough's that directed the solar energy onto a tube running along the focal line and this tube contained a molten salt that collects the solar energy that gets used to create super critical steam to generate power. Id like to see real world tests to see how viable a molten salt reactor would be on a superyacht.

@@rugby342 I will look into that. Alexei from Bering was widely mocked when he said that in the next 10 years we would see nuclear powered yachts and I think he was joking because that obviously would never happen, but the use of solar panels, Flettern sails, and maybe the molten salt generators are the next waves that will push the industry forward. I don't think they will be the end solution, because I think eventually some form of chemical or biomass will be created to be used as fuel. But they'll get the ball rolling. That's why I think catamarans will become more popular. They can use sails and solar power, and yes I know lithium batteries aren't very green lol, but you also don't have the heeling effect that a monohull does, and you can carry stuff like a superyacht does with tenders, toys, jet skis, etc. Unfortunately they aren't very wind efficient.

@@clifbradley Alexi is great and I would love to own a Bering one day. I like the approach Lurssen has taken with advancing fuel cell tech but it seems like the same scenario is playing over again like the video tape format war between VCR & Betamax. Which emerging technology will become the "New Standard" for the marine industry. I would like to see innovation that generates power from the dynamic surface of the ocean but this would take up precious space onboard, meaning less space for guests.

Hi I feel very sad indeed-Because I may have given the impression that I have enough money to buy a superyacht-Which I unfortunately don't I got this business idea. An idea I've had for some years-It combine Superyacht with luxury holiday home with swimming pool-Where the turist can choose whether they want to start 1 week at see and thereafter 1 week in this luxury holiday home.

Probably because you're ignorant. The resource gathering of electric vehicles is more harmful to the environment. There will always be someone whining about "environmental impact" even if everyone used canoes.

The most sustainable yacht is a yacht already built, as the most sustainable car is an old car. If you take into account its whole life (buiding+usage+destruction/recycling) an old Landrover has less environmental impact, even with its old fuel engine, than a brand new "E.Green-Something hybrid/electrical" car. Same story for a dishwasher or a lawnmower. But I love old boats and old cars.🙂

@@grondhero and that don’t know what sustainability actually means. I mean he literally mentioned it.
