Not just riding waves,

Making them.

By dramatically reducing cost without sacrificing reliability, Hanno will revolutionize maritime autonomy.

A Transformative Mission

Hanno is here to achieve what multi-million dollar teams never even dared to try—to circle the entire Earth—battling through perilous oceans for 24,000 nautical miles without stopping.

Our cross-functional team is developing cutting-edge solutions that blend extreme reliability with repeatable and affordable manufacturing. Accomplishing our first mission is just the first step to creating a whole new world of sustainable autonomy.

Vehicle Construction

This journey will be the first circumnavigation by any USV, as well as the lightest and smallest vehicle to ever accomplish that challenging age-old feat.

We are in the stage of developing and building a vehicle to pursue circumnavigation world records.
