With a length of 63 metres, width of 13.5 metres and beam of 18 metres, EAU has been designed to precision. Tjep have designed this concept to have 100% electric propulsion with a speed of 25 knots. The hull and superstructure are made from aluminium which is projected to contains 12 cabins. The inspiration behind the EAU concept yacht was said to be water drops and layering. Using familiar elements from traditional yacht craftmanship; the way in which the wooden planks form the layered lines along the hull of the wooden ships. The water droplet shaped wheelhouse, creating a key element of this design, floats like an abstract sculpture above the deck.
