Here are two examples: Meyer Werft, a newcomer in this highly complex business sector, presented details of its large One 50 project at this year's Monaco Yacht Show, which is highly regarded in financially powerful circles. At 150 metres long and 20 metres wide, the yacht, if you can still call it that, has the enormous dimensions of 15,000 GT. Fuel cells and battery systems are planned for the most sustainable operation possible. With an output of 25,000 kilowatts, a speed of up to 23 knots is possible, the shipyard promises.<\/p>\n<p>The new Albatross catamaran concept from the Bremerhaven-based Lloyd Werft shipyard, which was presented for the first time in Monaco, is a full 125 metres long and is based on the use of natural resources such as wind, sun and the surrounding seawater. Among other things, it is planned to use rigid sails, which should ensure a speed of around seven knots when the wind is favourable. With the installation of solar panels over an area of 1150 square metres, a further 280 kilowatts can be converted into additional speed. There are also five vertical wind turbines on the upper deck for around 50 kilowatts of electricity per hour. When travelling, the catamaran can be propelled by four engines, each with an output of 1800 kilowatts.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_25106\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-25106\" style=\"width: 472px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-25106\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/yacht-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"Eye-catcher at the Monaco Yacht Show: Project Albatross from Lloyd Werft, Photo: Lloyd Werft\" width=\"472\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/yacht-300x169.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/yacht-1024x576.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/yacht-768x432.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/yacht-1080x607.jpg 1080w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/yacht-750x422.jpg 750w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/yacht-1140x641.jpg 1140w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/yacht.jpg 1434w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 472px) 100vw, 472px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-25106\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Eye-catcher at the Monaco Yacht Show: Project Albatross from Lloyd Werft,<br \/>Photo: Lloyd Werft<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Pure luxury is on offer for the future owner - such as a swimming pool platform with an infinity pool and a beach club. Below deck there is a fitness room, a spa, several salons and dining areas for up to 14 guests. Four electrically powered tender boats and four jet skis in two separate garages are also part of the facilities. The helicopter deck is suitable for accommodating all types and sizes of aircraft. There are even quick-charging stations installed for future electrically powered helicopters.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Auf der Suche nach Alternativen f\u00fcr kaum noch zu akquirierende Handelsschiffsauftr\u00e4ge und die zu wenigen Auftr\u00e4ge f\u00fcr Beh\u00f6rden- und Marineschiffe haben sich einige deutsche Werften mit dem Bau von Yachten und, wo es m\u00f6glich ist, von Mega-Yachten, ein weiteres Standbein geschaffen.
