TECoNaut: A "Forgotten" Yacht Gets a New Lease on Life

yacht
The yacht MicroPolo, which never sailed and remained under a tarp in a garden for over a decade, is set to embark on a new “eco-life” as part of the TECoNaut project. This small yacht was originally designed in the 1980s by Jacek Centkowski, PhD, Eng. and Jan Młynarczyk, PhD, Eng.

As a partner in the TECoNaut project, Gdańsk University of Technology aims to demonstrate that sustainable sailing encompasses more than modern materials and eco-friendly propulsion systems. It also involves rescuing and revitalizing yachts that have been forgotten for years whether in marinas or simply left behind houses.
