Ship design set for evolution to account for wind-assisted propulsion
- Bound4blue co-founder David Ferrer says vessel design will evolve as wind assistance or wind propulsion will become mainstream
- As knowledge base builds up, ship specifications will change to account for fitting of sails as original equipment
- Consolidation of fragmented industry expected
The take up of wind-assisted propulsion systems is advancing but production capacity needs to grow to meet the expansion phase
