Water Revolution Foundation launched Ocean Assist at the 2025 Monaco Yacht Show. As a science-based, regenerative impact program, it aims to restore yachting’s ecological footprint and support the ocean. Ocean Assist helps the yachting industry reduce its environmental impact through scientifically proven marine restoration projects. Instead of just offsetting carbon emissions, the program encourages positive change — regenerative impact — by actively improving ocean health. Ocean Assist creates units known as Ocean Assist Units (OAUs). Each OAU signifies a measurable action that benefits both the ocean and the climate. 1 OAU = 1 Regenerative Contribution Unit (RCU) + 23 Verified Emission Reductions (VERs) RCUs measure the ecological restoration achieved, with progress expressed in quality hectares (Qha), which reflect the size and the health of restored habitats. VERs certify that 23 tonnes of CO₂ equivalent have been removed or avoided. These are internationally recognized carbon credits. The projects that generate OAUs are chosen by an independent scientific advisory board, registered in the public eCO2care registry, ensuring transparency, traceability, and accountability, and are certified. The Water Revolution Foundation issues certificates upon the purchase of OAUs. It is the first program of its kind to be officially recognized by the United Nations, certified by RINA under ISO standards, and aligned with global sustainability goals, especially SDG 14, “Life Below Water.” It also aligns with the Water Revolution Foundation’s Roadmap 2050 for net-zero and regenerative yachting.
