We often forget just how harmful boats can be to the environment since we cannot actually see their emissions, so models like the eco compatible catamaran must be built to prevent the oceans from getting any more polluted. Designed by Mariano Fajgelbaum, the ship uses a combination of solar panels and a telescopic turbine to harness power both during the day and night.
While still using conventional sails as the primary accelerator, the eco compatible catamaran does not rely on the traditional diesel engine as a secondary power source. The result is a beautiful vessel that leaves the waters untainted.
