Today marks a special day in a project that we are following closely. With the mounting of the keel the sailing yacht zero is one big step closer to sailing the oceans - and eventually operating without using fossil fuels. We’ve been following the construction of Zero very closely for a while, for all its interesting and innovative technology on board. Fundamental for the design and build of this project is the close collaboration between the industry leaders VRIPACK DESIGN, Vitters Shipyard and Dykstra Naval Architects, and the support of many industry experts. We are so curious to see its next steps and will showcase more interesting technology used in the project here. #RenewableEnergy #EnergyEfficiency #Innovation #MarineEngineering #TechInnovation #ShipTechnology

VESSEL REVIEW: French cargo transport company Grain de Sail has expanded its fleet with the recent acquisition of a new vessel delivered by local shipyard Piriou. 'Grain de Sail II' was built at Piriou’s Vietnam facilities to a design by French naval architecture firm L20Naval. It is notable for its large sails, which make it the second vessel in the Grain de Sail fleet to have such features. The rigging is developed using proven technologies and industry practices in construction and maintenance, resulting in a sail-to-displacement ratio of 2.5 square metres (27 square feet) of sail per tonne. This ratio means the ship can reach speeds of up to 12 knots while making it possible to reduce carbon emissions by more than 90 per cent compared to a conventional ship on an equivalent journey. The main goal of navigating without engine assistance is to reduce environmental impact as well as engine noise, which would otherwise have a direct impact on surrounding marine life. A series of trials undertaken in different weather conditions and with different sail plan configurations confirmed that the ship’s hull, coupled with its schooner rigging, is more efficient than expected in speed with optimum balance under sail. The vessel itself is also structurally designed to withstand cyclones, ensuring safe use in the Atlantic in all seasons. Full article link in comments.

Photos of the recent sinking, and I'm pleased to say subsequent refloating, of the sailing barge Wilfred have been posted by https://lnkd.in/dP6drrHn on Twitter (X). SB Wilfred's sinking is the latest event to highlight the fact that there are very few regulations governing static ships which are open to the public. In the UK passenger carrying ships used for navigation are required to meet the Maritime and Coastguard Agency's legislation and guidance but there is no equivalent guidance for static vessels. The local fire brigade will stipulate a static vessel's maximum capacity and the local authority's Environmental Health department will inspect food preparation facilities but there is a complete absence of legislation, or even guidance, on stability, including damage stability, compartmentalisation, the provision of bilge pumps or the provision of lifesaving equipment. Stability can be a particular concern as an historic vessel will often have many modifications during its life as a static facility. Such modifications often include removal of heavy items, such as engines, to create additional space and addition of facilities that add top weight. Such modifications, which can be done without involvement of a naval architect, may produce a dangerous instability, especially in the event of any hull damage. At Beckett Rankine we are in the process of assembling a team to consider the safety issues of static afloat historic vessels in order to provide guidance on best practice. If you have an interest in this work and believe that you could provide any assistance or case studies for it then please do get in touch by emailing us at historicships@beckettrankine.com @nathistships #historicships #staticships #floatingrestaurant

The hulls and the superstructure of this state-of-the-art catamaran are constructed using lightweight carbon-fiber composite materials, resulting in a weight reduction of approximately 50 percent compared to traditional materials. 👉 Learn more about the passenger ferry Vision of the Fjords: https://lnkd.in/dDJussW4

During dry docking, the ballast tanks are usually emptied, and the ship is lifted out of the water. This provides an opportunity for a thorough inspection of the condition of the tanks, including the hull plating, internal structures, and coating systems. Any corrosion or damage to the tanks can be identified and repaired, ensuring the structural integrity of the vessel.
