Even in the era mars rovers and drones, little can outmatch the allure of the deep blue sea. Sailing-the age-old art and practice-has not only stood the test of time but has also been instrumental in shaping it. From aiding in discoveries of new continents to fostering trade and cultural exchange, one cannot underestimate the influence boats have had.

Today, yachts, catamarans, and other marine vehicles steer not only our vacations but also crucial segments of the economy, like tourism and seafood industries. Their roles are becoming evermore intricate, as climate change threatens ocean biodiversity and sustainability initiatives begin seeking solace in hydrogen-fuelled boats.
