The vessel’s design significantly reduces drag through hydrofoiling and realizing an impressive 80 percent energy savings.
The Open, designed by BMW Group Designworks, boasts an expansive cabin that spans 14.8 meters in length and 4.5 meters in width. It includes a flush deck featuring a two-seater helm station, a sheltered galley with ample seating, a double sunbed at the stern, and a spacious relaxation area on the foredeck.
The firms claim that by significantly reducing drag through hydrofoiling and realizing an impressive 80 percent energy savings, The Open surpasses traditional day yachts that typically consume over 150 liters of fossil fuels per hour. Hydrofoil technology uses a foil or wing underwater to lift the boat’s hull until it is totally outside the water.
