I think one of our main innovations is how to make a very tall and rigid sail without a rigid mast. But you're right, once we figured out how we can roll up a 60m sail into a small package it was obvious to put it in a…
We couldn't fully explain that 400kW number in the video, but our video says "average power" and it was based on a standard transpacific route. The 400kW already takes into account the times the Mirage is not being…
The Mirage will be controlled autonomously and the Captain will have an override panel in the bridge. It will be powered with batteries, which will be recharged with solar panels or a wind turbine. Also, hahaha, just…
Cranes can lift double wides, the bigger limitation is the maximum weight a crane can carry. Luckily, a Panama sized crane can lift 40 – 50 tons and our current weight estimate is fairly below that.
1.We are talking to ship owners with Panamax vessels (3000 – 4500 TEU). Therefore, many of our estimates are based on a vessel of that size. Nevertheless, our product will work with any sized container ship. 2.We will…
Kites are incredible for sailing downwind; however, they don’t produce sufficient thrust when sailing upwind. The vast majority of container ships travel faster than 15 knots causing most of the wind they experience to…
Hahaha, thank you - just fixed! Our website was drafted up quickly to show off our marketing video - can you tell?!
