    Contra-rotating propellers are used to counter the torque effect, thus reducing vibration. They wont effect the pods being used for side thrust. If anything, side thrust will be more efficient.

    I like the Feadship. It looks like it could be from "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen", right alongside the Nautilus.
    The bow panorama room will be great. I recently saw interior shots on a new boat that has one, while the boat was under way. A totally different perspective & a terrific idea, wherever it came from.
    I'm calling bull***t on this HVO 90% CO2 reduction/net zero, whatever. This clearly sounds like a fudge of the numbers. Maybe if it's mostly not a hydrocarbon, but then you have to burn ~ 3 times as much of it to get the same amount of electricity, and it probably costs 5 times as much for the same kwh. For example, you don't get any CO2 if you burn hydrogen. But you also don't get much energy for an equivalent amount.

    Europter rebranded into Airbus Helicopters but you are spot on with the 145 designation. Perfect yacht helicopter. Interesting note was that Octopus (Deceased Paul Allen's yacht) enjoyed both Sikorsky S-76 and Airbus 135. They also had an MD-900. The S-76 is a terrible yacht helicopter but looked amazing landing onto Octopus rear and main helipad at the time.

      @miceinoz1181 Рік тому +2

      @@derlangsame7813 I would expect it is more to do with the light and quick handling characteristics landing on a deck that is rising and falling quickly. The S76 is pretty big and more suited to the stability of a ship, whereas the smaller rotaries would handle like a sports car and be handier landing on a yacht deck, especially in a bit if a sea. My thoughts only to an interesting question.

      My first superyacht job was in a vessel with an extendable hanger which housed an Agusta 109-E. Amongst other things I was the Flight Deck Officer and managed to get a couple of rides. The 74 yr old Boss was also the pilot. We took the Budgie (Angry Palm tree) across the pond and toured the Caribbean plus other places.

    04:10 - Counter rotating thrusters (propellers) work like a force multiplier, there are even some larger commercial/military helicopters with rotors like this as well.
    When docking a large yacht that has independent rudders you turn them inward to increase pressure, this is almost the same principle.
    I believe this tech is a spin off from steam turbine design rotor stages alternate in specific sections to compress air.
    Wait till they start to employ Toroidal tip-less props, that are 40% more efficient and near silent (the shafts will still vibrate of course if they are not absolutely horizontal).

      Oh, I don’t think it’s dangerous - the boat is certainly in Class and every aspect of that feature certified, approved, and regularly inspected by surveyors. It’s cool but it’s just unlikely to be used much, especially in a head sea. On the other hand, owners rarely make crossings, and virtually never in rough weather.

    The new Feadship technology sounds extremely interesting, and anything that will help the planet by the reduction of emissions is an extremely exciting advancement especially if this enables future yacht builds to incorporate this technology into their builds as well. However, aesthetically the yacht is about as appealing as a root canal.

    When I was about 30 years old, tasting Dom Perignon for the 1st and only time in my life, I decided there and then I would shed my mortal coil before I became too old, by downing a vintage of this fine champagne and jumping off a luxury yacht! Well at 72 (far too old for my liking) I not only have ever been aboard a ship of any kind, nor have I ever sipped this drop again.😇

    Q, ... Are any of these Super Yachts used as full time live on boards, that their owners sail around the world on? As far as I can make out they are used as play things for holidaying on, and if that is the case good luck to them but a live a board Super Yacht would be very interesting !! Thanks inadvance. Stay Safe & Keep Reporting!!

      What an obscene sight. I am all in favour of free enterprise and thoroughly believe in personal effort and the rewards which endeavour and hard work can bring. However, like all things, there are limits. The purchaser, private person, or corporation spending over an agreed financial figure on personal real estate should be required to deposit an equal amount of the price into a social fund.

      And what do you care if they are spending more of their mlm money on something? It's like in the housing market, if you like a house and someone buys against you, you offer more to the seller. It is their money, they can do what they want with it. Has nothing to do with you or others.
      Why? It is their money. They don't have to do anything, they don't owe anyone anything. And they probably already give millions to charity.
      Why should they be obligated to put money in a social fund? And those charities and funds hardly ever give it to the people that should get them none of it actually makes it to the community.
