The Elizabeth Swann, cruising up the Amazon, to Manaus

The Elizabeth Swann is a technological marvel. She is solar and hydrogen powered, as predicted by Jules Verne in 1874. Held to the be fastest zero emission ship on planet earth. 

The Swann does not receive as much solar assistance while in southern latitudes, thus is more dependent on green hydrogen fuel compounds. Of which, John Storm and Dan Hawk are acutely aware.

The vessel is also packed with juicy tech, that makes her something special. Equipped with the Artificially Intelligent 'Hal' computer, the trimaran is a virtual living thing, an autonomous (robotic) lifeform, more than capable of navigating anywhere in the world at high speed, without polluting the atmosphere or the oceans. Hal is capable of exceeding the Turing Test, being far more knowledgeable and intelligent, than most humans, regardless of their Intelligence Quotient (IQ).

In addition, the Swann is equipped with a stunning sensor array, split beam sonars, magnetometers, water chemical analysis via a virtual laboratory, drone aerial surveillance, and satellite interfaces - making her self aware and in tune with her surroundings. The ship also houses The Ark, the world's most powerful interactive digital DNA library.

Hal, works with Captain Nemo, the autonomous navigation system that includes object recognition, so as to be more than COLREGs; Collision Avoidance Regulations compliant, to satisfy the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) requirements.

The integrated system is loyal to John Storm, coded to recognize and protect him, and other authorized members of the crew.
