At boot Düsseldorf 2026, The Fair Winds Collective presents emission-free sailing as a real solution for ocean protection within the UN Ocean Decade framework.

Help to sustain wind-powered shipping, maritime education, research, and global collaboration. Learn about partner contributions for 2025 and 2026 and how your support keeps the collective afloat.

Fair Winds Collective reached the top three at the MCN Cup in Bremen, earning recognition for smart, sustainable, and future-oriented maritime innovation. Our mission for wind-powered propulsion and practical zero-emission solutions gained strong industry attention, sparking new connections and momentum.

Fair Winds Collective and SOOP equip wind-powered vessels with PlanktoScopes for emission-free ocean science. By building a shared instrument pool, they enable decentralized data collection on plankton, climate change, and marine biodiversity. This collaboration advances sustainable ocean observation and invites public support to expand responsible, low-impact marine research.
