And what does YETI offer that other carbon s-set offsetting tools don't?
13:21
Well, YETI isn't really about carbon offsetting, but it is about, um, really measuring the full life cycle of a yacht from design, build, operations, a- and refit, and to make it a, a, a support to decision-making.

Um, so trade-offs, you can make improvements and, and thankfully, there is so much technology out there, so many solutions, be they in the hub of verified solutions or others that we know of, um, which can really reduce your impact.

I mean, the use of HVO when it's available, you know, that is an easy win.
