these were the early days of our thinking and we have learnt a lot since!
We were lucky to be next to the legendary Rolls Royce team and their fast electric plane in Glasgow
We had fun salvaging components to build her in a circular manner and take her out on her first freshwater trials!

Shipping emissions will represent 17% of global CO2 by 2050
Shipping is a large elephant in the climate change room. If left unchecked, the industry could generate 17% of global CO2 emissions by 2050. And it's not just CO2 - ships emit other pollutants like black carbon, NO2 and CH4 etc.(learn more)
Radical Thinking
Let us eliminate not just CO2 but all of the above emissions
Superior
They are weather-independent, they can get to hard-to- reach areas, they are cheaper to build and operate; and they are quieter and more stable. Crucially, they are cleaner, with zero fumes or pollutants.
Net Positive
With every mile we sail to deliver cargo, we give back to the ocean and not extract from her. B
Decarbonising Shipping
Our mission is to reduce 300 million tonnes of CO2 emissions from the planet.
Green routes
We are not competing with the container shipping industry but we shall be servicing short point-to-point routes with fast, zero- emission delivery.
She is modular and capable of performing multiple mission profiles while being net-positive.
Take Action
We are looking for everyone and anyone to get involved, be it dreamers, scientists, marine enthusiasts, activists, change makers, artists, dancers, industry experts, scientists, sponsors, investors, students ...
