• How the Green Voyager breaks new environmental and efficiency barriers
• The technical and operational philosophy of the build
• The yards (nearly) R & D free approach to reliability and cost efficiency
• And suggest the project is an example of how the region’s yards can lead rather than follow superyacht trends
