As there is a great demand for green technology in the shipping industry, especially when European Commission is going to impose higher taxes and penalties on polluters, our company has prepared a solution for all the existing and new ships that is a simple and automatic system driven by endless wind energy to reduce the use of expensive and toxic fuel. The patent is a world novelty in the field of sailing, as the system does not require any deck equipment at all and provides a single & short-handed, easy-to-manage sailing solution. It can even be completely automated; in addition to greater safety, it is reliable, efficient in all conditions and the ultimate in visual impression... The unit can easily be mounted onto the existing deck structure without taking up the inner cargo space. The most important advantage of the product is its completely self-folding system level with the deck in case of storms, no winds, services or going under the bridge. And thus, the sail rig contributes significantly to reducing the carbon footprint, while this system can save around 60% of heavy oil on windy routes, especially in the commercial sector.
Advantages and innovation:
1. Extremely simple and easy single-handed navigation of the vessel, which can be fully performed or operated by one person.
2. Or robotic with a touch screen.
3. Saving of enormous amount of expensive fuel, up to 60%, on windy routes.
4. Applicable on 50% of existing ships. Aero sail system can be applied on different types of sailing or motor yachts, even on existing vessels, ranging from small sail yachts from 5m up to 200m Superyachts to gigantic commercial ships. That is about 55% of all existing commercial vessels in the world: tankers, bulk carriers, and passenger ships (that is around 52.660 vessels).
5. Significantly reduces the carbon footprint on a global scalern5. Foldable system when there is no wind, in big storms, or when the vessel goes under the bridge or is on service.
6. It Does not need special deck fittings or a complicated and heavy inner hull structure.
7. Does not take the inner hull space.
8. Very stable in all wind conditions.
9. Perfectly easy to manage the rig, also for inexperienced yacht sailors.
10. Good responsiveness and efficiency in water, extremely easy and fast tacking.
11.. Purity of the deck as the Aero sail system does not require any deck equipment to make a clean line of decks and cabins of any kind of sail yachts.
12. More space for other deck activities and relaxing programs or cargo.
13. The whole rig is up to 40% lighter than conventional sails, resulting from eliminating heavy and complex deck equipment and deck reinforcements for the mast and internal structure around it.
14. The interior or main salon has no central mast, penetrating the interior and bringing greater inner space.
15. Saving electricity or charging it while sailing, the sails can be easily used 60% of the time.
16. Option of placing cloth of solar panels into the sail area to recharge the battery.
17. A significant reduction of the crew number which is intended to operate the rig.
