Health-obsessed billionaires with a love of the ocean might finally have a place to go wild in nature.
A concept model of a zero-emission superyacht with a gigantic greenhouse and vegetable garden has been released by a German design company. The ship is called the VY.01 and will be 110m long and was designed by Berlin-based design studio 3deluxe design studio, which called it a ‘paradisiacal biotope’.
Liquid hydrogen will power the superyacht and should allow billionaires with a passion for growing their own fruit and veg the chance to do so while living a life of luxury on the sea. Instead of using soil to feed plants, the ship will have a hydroponic source, which means growing flora in aqueous mineral nutrient solutions.
A seawater desalination system powered by zero-carbon solar panels will allow the vessel to remove salt from water for the greenhouse’s plants. It will have a saltwater swimming pool, glazed roof and open sides that can close during stormy weather or to gain extra speed.
The designers acknowledged building the ship would take up a lot of resources but said they hoped its owner would offer the boat as an educational hub when they were not relaxing on it.
