The team of 2027

We are the 2027 TU Delft Hydro Motion Team; a multidisciplinary sustainable maritime racing team, driven by a shared mission. We aim to design, build, test and race sustainable technologies for the maritime industry. With these technologies our goal is to inspire policymakers, companies and students around the world to minimize emissions by innovating on a green fuel powered boat. But we cannot do this alone. True progress lies in collaboration; working hand in hand with the maritime sector to ensure that cleaner, greener solutions become the new standard to create a world we can proudly pass on to future generations.
