A slam dunk for the sailing ships
Manage episode 304894676 series 2882087
We are delighted to receive this week Dr Sergio Perez, PhD, a professor of marine engineering at the US Merchant Marine Academy.
Sergio presents an update of a 1975 MARAD (U.S. Maritime Administration) report which concluded that commercial ships using sail power were not economically viable when compared with engine-powered vessels.
The 2021 update concludes the opposite: it is economically smart to use sail at this point as a principal means of propulsion.
"A slam dunk for the sailing ships, a no brainer with one thing which needs to be addressed: the height of the masts"
