1. A hydrogen harvesting system, comprising:
a wave energy converter (WEC) vessel having a hydrogen tank, a submerged hull, and a hydrogen output port at said submerged hull;
a hydrogen retrieval vessel comprising a water pump and a deionized water tank; and
a navigable hydrogen transfer hose maneuvered by a hose conveyance vehicle and configured to couple to the hydrogen output port, said hose conveyance vehicle including a propulsion device;
wherein the hydrogen retrieval vessel transfers deionized water to the wave energy converter vessel and the wave energy converter vessel transfers hydrogen to the hydrogen retrieval vessel, wherein the transfer of each of the deionized water and the hydrogen occurs via the navigable hydrogen transfer hose.
