H2-Yachts, a division of the Switzerland-based H2-Industries AG, is delighted to present the world’s first energy autonomous Superyacht that can achieve more than 6,000 nm at 10 knots. No more costs for Diesel and no more polluting the planet. Functionality with harmonious and clean forms were the main objectives, when developing the highly innovative 62m H2 yacht design. The yacht will become available for charter in 2016. The propulsion system of the 62m H2 superyacht concept is fully electric with a liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) as the energy storage and a minimum effort on maintenance for all systems. Michael Stusch made the Naval Architecture in the Mallorca based office. He has been working on the concept and idea for more than 2 years. To combine the solar panels and the wind turbine in a modern clean hull and superstructure design with lines orientated on the automobile industry and in conjunction with a maritime functionality and a luxurious interior, which is standard on the 62m H2 yacht, was the goal Michael Stusch explained. He himself has over 20 years maritime experience as a captain and has been living on his own yacht for a long time. He is an engineer and responsible for the Naval Architecture and idea; he developed the exterior and interior design together with the Graz/Austria based design team “motion code: blue”. The straight, vertical bow and the explorer form of the 62m H2 mega yacht concept, which enable a 480m² beach club with 2 pools in 2 decks and a 70m² fold-out bathing platform, were given facts for the design as well as floor-to-ceiling windows in as many as possible decks. The sea view in the main deck, where the saloon and the open kitchen/bar is located, is allowed by a sheer bulwark and in the upper deck, which is entirely reserved for the owner by floor-to-ceiling windows. The upper deck has a bow and stern terrace and a spa with sauna, steam bath and whirl pool. The bed room is wide open to the stern terrace and a bar right next inside to the sliding door gives the owner the feeling to sit outside. The bridge deck is used in the aft part as a dining room with a 20 people dining table, a bar and a wood fire pig roast as well as a wood fire Pizza oven. The sea view from the bar is only limited by a 50cm high couch which covers the outside major design line coming from the bow, ending at the stern of the upper deck.
