Project Master – ICON Yachts
In a recent discussion during the Monaco Yacht Show which echoed the rising tide of environmental consciousness in the maritime industry, JMS Project Manager Rob Pijper, ICON Yachts Project Developer, Marek Hasenkopf and Marketing Manager, Rebecca Budel discussed our ambitious plan to convert the 70-meter Project Master yacht into an eco-friendly marvel.
With cutting-edge propulsion systems, a commitment to waste reduction, and energy-saving innovations, this project promises to set new standards in sustainable luxury yachting.
The Eco-Friendly Vision The conversation kicked off with Marek Hasenkopf, who passionately articulated the vision behind the Project Master conversion. Revolutionizing Propulsion Systems One of the most exciting aspects of the conversion plan is the integration of state-of-the-art propulsion systems.
Rob Pijper explaining that we are looking at the latest advancements in hybrid propulsion, which will reduce emissions and fuel consumption significantly such as the Voith Group propulsion systems. Waste Reduction and Energy Efficiency We are working on innovative solutions to reduce waste production on the yacht. This includes advanced water purification systems, a lab reserach area, recycling facilities, and energy-efficient lighting and climate control. Our goal is to ensure that sustainability and luxury coexist seamlessly. Engaging with Eco-Conscious Clients This eco-friendly conversion is aligned with the growing demand for sustainable luxury experiences among yacht enthusiasts.
A Collaborative Effort:
The discussion revealed that the transformation of Project Master is not a solitary endeavor. ICON Yachts and JMS Yachting are collaborating closely to ensure that the project meets rigorous sustainability standards while maintaining the highest standards of luxury.
Setting Sail Towards a Greener Future In an industry known for opulence and extravagance, the Project Master conversion serves as a beacon of hope and inspiration, demonstrating that luxury and sustainability can sail hand in hand towards a brighter, cleaner future for the oceans we all cherish.
Do you agree that it is better to convert a yacht rather than build a new one?
