The near perfect hydrodynamic shape of the blue whale was the inspiration for the design study into the the hull form and water movement.

The shape of the main hull was modelled in Rhino Marine. The Bulbous nose reduces drag and increases the overall efficiency of the design.

I explored the idea of being able to bend water around the shape of the hull using magnetohydrodynamic propulsion, no propellers, thrusters or rudders.

The waterline would be coated with a superconductor, creating a magnetic field between the main hull and the outriggers. Because of the polarity of the water molecules, the liquid would bend around the waterline - 'squeezing' the vessel forward.
