Hello world! Clippership is building autonomous sail-cargo vessels, right now. Here’s our early prototype testing off the Southern California coast.

A bit late, but very excited to share our $4.6M raise to advance autonomous maritime freight. A huge thank you to the Fifty Years team for going all in on the vision, and Founders Factory for your participation.

Welcome to the fleet, v0+ With a 10-ton steel+aluminum offshore workboat hull, 30ft foldable carbon+aluminum wing with electro-hydraulic actuation, and capable of open ocean uncrewed autonomy, v0+ will help validate critical systems for upcoming big boat.
