If you've ever wanted to avoid human contact for the rest of your life, you can now with the UNA Autonomous Yacht. The luxury boat was designed to be self-sustaining so that you never have to return to land again. As a result, users of the sleek yacht can live out their days on the high seas.
Designer Graham Kukla drafted the concept yacht in order to explore how one might remain autonomous while out on the ocean. Kukla designed the boat to use photoelectrochemical hydrogen procution to produce electricity. This means that the UNA converts sunlight and hydrogen into energy.
In addition to acting as a power plant, the UNA was also designed the yacht to produce food. Produce grown on Kukla's yacht could be used to supplement a diet of seafood captured from the ocean.
