With the rapid technological development of alternative energy and propulsion systems, interior, HVAC Super Yachts in mind, designing and building a Super Yacht ‘just’ to meet the current client and technological requirements is not a sustainable approach. Not from an environmental impact point-of-view, but also not from a value point-of-view, given that the full life cycle of a yacht will for sure pass multiple owners, technical developments. And future rules and regulations could be restrictive in the yacht’s usage.

But will a Super Yacht client be willing to add extra GT just for future outlook? Which technological and regulatory developments, and with which impact, should be taken into account into the design? Is it possible to design an interior/exterior with a circular approach? How to prepare for a different energy generation philosophy?? This requires vision and a good understanding of the market, vision of the Owner and the proper approach form Naval Architectural point of view to limit the 'loss' of GT's for future use.

In other words, it is really about a new view on the design process with the goal to achieve an end-result which is better prepared for refit than current superyachts generally are.
