Marine Weather Intelligence has announced its professional membership with the SEA Index Superyacht Eco Association. By aligning with SEA Index’s mission to empower superyacht owners with unbiased tools to assess the environmental impact of their yachts, Marine Weather Intelligence aims to enhance superyacht voyage planning with precise meteorological insights, enabling owners and captains to optimise routing for reduced fuel consumption and environmental impact.
With a deep understanding of maritime weather dynamics, Marine Weather Intelligence equips superyacht operators with the necessary data to make informed routing decisions. By integrating advanced forecasting with SEA Index’s philosophy, the initiative provides a pragmatic approach to fuel efficiency, ensuring high-performance voyages that are both cost-effective and more environmentally responsible.
Recognised for its impartial methods of evaluating superyacht emissions, the SEA Index provides yacht owners and industry stakeholders with a platform for exchange, promoting the adoption of sustainable practices. Marine Weather Intelligence’s involvement strengthens this initiative, offering actionable weather-based routing strategies to support more sustainable voyages.
“We recognise that efficiency and environmental responsibility must go hand in hand,” said Christian Dumard, CEO at Marine Weather Intelligence. “By joining SEA Index, we contribute to a shared mission—providing superyacht owners with the tools to navigate smarter, minimise fuel use, and lower emissions.”
This collaboration marks a step forward in advancing eco-conscious navigation practices within the superyacht sector. Marine Weather Intelligence and SEA Index will work together to promote solutions that align operational excellence with sustainability, fostering a future where yachting is integrated with responsible stewardship of the seas.
About SEA Index ®
Launched in 2020 by the Yacht Club de Monaco, under the aegis of its ‘Monaco, Capital of Advanced Yachting initiative’, the Superyacht Eco Association (SEA Index) is a non-profit organisation designed to minimise the impact of yachting in order to preserve the oceans for future generations.
By enabling yachting stakeholders to accurately measure and reduce their environmental impact via a range of unbiased tools, methodologies and indices, SEA Index empowers the yachting community and increases transparency throughout the sector.
SEA Index’s flagship CO2 certification program is based on the International Maritime Organisation’s EEDI and EEXI and is adapted for yachts 24m+. The only superyacht design index to offer third-party verification, certificate holders that achieve 3-stars or higher on the SEA Index are invited to join the SEA Index network, which provides access to exclusive benefits, including priority berthing at selected ports and marinas.

About Marine Weather Intelligence
Founded in 2023, Marine Weather Intelligence (MWI) is a deep-tech startup specialising in marine weather and routing. The company develops SaaS platforms that integrate artificial intelligence to provide maritime routing solutions, as well as personalised weather forecasts and alerts. These tools optimise routes by considering the characteristics of the vessel (fuel consumption, load, speed) and environmental conditions (sea state, weather). This approach enhances safety at sea, improves ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival), and significantly reduces fuel consumption.
The platforms feature innovative interfaces, making them highly interactive and user-friendly.
