The concept
Here is a water vehicle that has the capability to produce its own fuel! Don't get shocked as a French company named Quimperié has manufactured the all new MIG 675 cruiser that does exactly what has been mentioned. It will produce fuel by directly harvesting hydrogen from seawater with the help of on-board generators. This means that the need of unstable and risky hydrogen tanks will be deleted from the design as live hydrogen production will take place.
The cruiser boat measures 6.7 x 2.5-meter or 22 x 8-foot and can touch a top speed of 113 km/h or 70mph. It can seat three people and has a cruising speed of 72.5 km/h or 45 mph. The hydrogen powered board will produce nothing but water vapors. All the electric devices, like a 10-inch touchscreen controller, an electric anchor roller, depth finder, an Alpine audio system, GPS, an LED navigation lighting system, rear-view camera and a bar fridge with an electric retractable table, all are powered by the hydrogen generator.
The MIG 675 cruiser is a true call of luxury and will also feature a sun deck, toilet, leather interior, retractable shower and teak floor. It will make sure that your dream of spending a pollution-free day at the beach soon turns into reality. The environmentally-friendly boat will come stashed with a price tag of $325,000 and is expected to hit the market next year.
The inspiration
Keeping the environment clean and saving precious resources is what stirred the designing of Water-powered LUXURY's MIG 675 cruiser. Fuel is not only expensive but also produces harmful emissions. The cruiser has been created to deal with both the troubles and help people enjoy an Eco-friendly ride.
Eco credentials
Many designers have come up with boats and ships that are powered by solar and wind energy. But there are many who are trying to exploit other sources of fuel as well and hydrogen is one of them. MIG 675 cruiser is a hydrogen powered boat that will keep the seawater and environment clean by producing hydrogen from seawater. The MIG 675 cruiser will definitely give a new meaning to clean and green boats. It has a super clean engine that won't pollute the underwater ecosystem.
Feasibility
Hydrogen is being used as a fuel to power many boats, therefore, MIG 675 cruiser's feasibility is not questionable. Keeping in mind that the creation will harvest hydrogen from the water body it will move on, the boat will not require any fuel refills. But the company has not made it clear whether the cruiser boat will run on seawater indefinitely or will it require other kinds of fuels to escalate its hydrogen production. Not much has been revealed about the engine it will come fitted with, so one can't give a final word on what the result produced by the cruiser will be like.

1. Hydro Dolphin
Rayka Design Studio has come up with a passenger boat that will be powered with hydrogen fuel and has been named Hydro Dolphin. As the named suggests, the Hydro Dolphin has fetched heavy inspiration from dolphins. It has a length, width and height measuring 22m, 6m and 5.25m, respectively. The design features a wide outer skin that can be exploited depending on the weather condition.
The glass facade will let people enjoy a panoramic view and give them a chance to appreciate the beauty of their surroundings. It lets passengers sit in different positions, while it can also be used in still waters like the Golden Horn. Hydro Dolphin also has a space that can be used to install a small kitchen unit. The Eco-friendly, hydrogen-powered Hydro Dolphin will take people on a fun-filled ride that too without harming the surroundings with any kind of pollutants.
2. Orcageno
Orcageno is a low-emission super-yacht concept that has been crafted by Pharos Marine, which is a design studio based in Egypt. The attention-grabbing yacht will fetch all the power from a hydrogen diesel electric engine that will fitted in Orcageno. The concept is 60 meters long and will deliver a range of approximately 1800 nautical miles at a speed of 18 knots that too in an environmentally-friendly way.
The yacht manages to deliver an even better fuel-efficiency, thanks to the axe-bow structure of the hull that brings down residence because the entrance is placed at a low angle. The best part is it will also reduce the impact on marine life and shoreline erosion. The operating range of Orcageno is pumped up as hydrogen fuel used produces three times more energy than diesel and that too without producing harmful gases. The design also features a generator that will get power from hydrogen-diesel IC engine.
3. EkranoYacht
EkranoYacht is a hydrogen-powered, flying yacht concept that has been designed by Jaron Dickson. The Australian designer was inspired from the Ekranoplan, which is the legendary Soviet super-vehicle. Hydrogen powered vehicles are quite sustainable and do not produce harmful emissions. These use sustainable fuel that only produces hydrogen in small amounts and water vapor as emissions.
The cool vehicle has been designed for the year 2025 and will be used for permanent residence. It will unfurl a great way to travel by sea while keeping the environment pollution free. EkranoYacht will let you carry your home wherever you go that will surly leave people awestruck. It comes injected with the comfort of a yacht and at the same time will let you savor the convenience that an airplane comes with.
I can't imagine how would these work. They are really great inventions. Thanks!
