JAKARTA - The increasingly massive technological development is now evidenced by the emergence of a new Lazzarini Design Studio project in Italy, which has succeeded in creating cruise ships that can not only run in water, but also fly in water.

The 242-foot cruise ship, which has a stunning design, is called the Plectrum. The Plectrum is built from dry carbon fiber which makes it very light. By using a foil system, this ship can rise above the waves and glide along the water at speeds of up to 75 knots.

Instead of being driven by the wind, thanks to three hydrogen-powered motors capable of producing 5,000hp each, the Plectrum can lift automatically to the surface of the water.

According to the details of the product, the hydrofoil technology can be adjusted starting from 15 meters when anchored up to 20 meters while the yacht is sailing at high speed.

With a classy orange color, the exterior design of the Plectrum is complemented by a sleek and curved silhouette on the side deck and garage openings.

The Plectrum has a living room divided into four decks, mainly, the cruise ship offers six guest cabins, suites for owners, swimming pools, and also helicopter runways.

Currently, the cruise ship remains a concept ship that does not have a release date set to be rolled out widely to the market.

Launching DailyMail, the use of hydrofoil installed in the hull of fast boats will help lift moving vessels and reduce barriers. Hydrofoil provides additional lift when the ship reaches planning speeds. By installing hydrofoil, it means the hull can be lifted entirely from the water.
