Good idea. When we get a boat that can travel the 60 km in open ocean we'll make that trip regularly.

well good news, there's a solr powered speedboat that goes 30Knots

May 31st, 2008​

HereÃÔ another flashy concept that uses solar energy for transportation: the solar speedboat! Unlike the solar sailor we talked about earlier, the Dutch MK1 prototype is designed to travel at speeds up to 30 knots! In 2006 the Delft Technical University Solarboat Team raced the speedboat to first place in the Nuon Frisian Solar Challenge. The 10 meter long lightweight boat has a carbon fibre body and an 80 kilowatt motor powered by 14 square meters of solar panels. The boat is obviously not designed for utilitarian purposes, but it is a positive step toward further development of solar technologies. Watch the video to see it in action!

Something about the $650,000 US DOLLAR price tag that I am finding difficulty with at the moment!
