The Green Jet Futuristic Concept SailYacht
May 15th, 2008 by BallerRide 1 Comment
Erik Sifrer’s design for the Green Jet 57 m (187 foot) sailyacht offers the perfect solution for the eco-friendly, lazy, and luxury-minded sailboat enthusiast. The concept sailyacht operates similar to a motoryacht, as it’s navigated and controlled by a computerized sail system that is operated by the touch of a control screen. Two fully automated Aero-sails guided by hydraulic motors act as the main propulsion system for the Green Jet, and the hydraulic motors are designed to hoist the sails to full height in 30-40 seconds. The automated sail system means that the crew can focus more on catering to the owner’s requests, versus waisting their time rigging the sails.
Like other luxury yachts there are separate areas for the guests and the crew. In this case, the crew has its living quarters in the front of the boat, while the owner’s suite is located in the rear. A centrally located pool divides the two areas, which are distinguished on the deck by their wave shaped roofs and circular sky windows.
At night the boat’s sails light up, making the Green Jet look like a floating nightclub. Check out the images below for a detailed look at the Green Jet sailyacht.
