TEISTIN, the first ship in the world with retractable bow foils
Since September 25, 2019, TEISTIN has been partly powered by the waves of the North Atlantic Ocean, transporting thousands of passengers between Gamlarætt, Skopun and Hestur in the Faroe Islands with retractable bow foils from Wavefoil.
The foils convert wave energy directly into propulsive thrust and reduce the ship motions, thereby saving fuel and improving the comfort on board.
