America’s Cup: BGH, the zero-emission hydrogen-powered chase boat alongside the successful American Magic
Bluegame, Italian excellence in shipbuilding, part of the Sanlorenzo Group, has built the
BGH-HSV (Hydrogen Support Vessel) to American Magic, the chase boat to American
Magic, the challenger team in the 37 th edition of the America's Cup.
The chase boat was designed following the strict requirements of the America's Cup
Protocol and it literally flies on foils at 50 knots alongside American Magic's AC75 on the
racecourse. It is powered exclusively by hydrogen, making it zero-emission, with a range
of 180 miles.
The use of hydrogen as the sole propulsion system marks an important milestone in
sustainable technology, not only for Bluegame and the Sanlorenzo Group, pioneers in the
journey towards carbon neutrality, but for the entire recreational boating industry.
