Scrap Metal Catamaran
Actor-turned-environmentalist Daniel Roesner is redefining yachting with a one-of-a-kind, circular performance catamaran.
When German Daniel Roesner isn’t in front of the camera or working behind it, his passion for sailing has led him to designing an eco-conscious boat with unique details.
His latest project, dubbed the Hu’chu 55, is more than a high-performance sailing catamaran. It’s a floating template for sustainable living and circular design.
It's also made of scrap.
The 55-foot multi-hull, developed in collaboration with Hamburg-based naval architecture firm iYacht GmbH, attempts to answer a simple question: what happens when you design a yacht not just to cruise, but to care?
“I am not an engineer or scientist, but someone who truly fell in love with the water and the planet he lives on,” said Roesner in statement when the boat launched.
“The design and engineering office iYacht acted as a filter for my imagination. While some of my ideas were challenged technically, for most of them iYacht confirmed the feasibility and even enabled me to go one step further.”
The result is the Hu’chu 55 — a purpose-built catamaran that somehow blends Roesner's love for adventure with creative production, eco-conscious manufacturing, and sustainability in its operation.
