Dr. David Kreamer's vision is to return old ships to the seas where they belong. Together with a new purpose, he wished to see these ships produce drinking water from sea water using desalination facilities installed aboard.
Having a PHD in hydrology, Kreamer's goal is to produce potable drinking water for areas in the world scarce of water supply. He has addressed the issue of contaminating the seashore and nearby habitats by land-based factories using the desalination process. He claims that if these are mobile ships producing water then they could evenly spread out the extra salt content all over the ocean to minimize the effect. Also, he adds that being a mobile ship, one major advantage is that it can automatically moved to different locations making sure to avoid catastrophic typhoons and the like. He also wants to use renewable energy to run these ships, suggestions are wind and solar power.
