If one considers the emission levels generated by a ferry running on diesel fuel and carrying passengers across our cities, having ferry boats that run on alternative source of energy or a combination of fossil fuel and nature free gift of sun and wind may not be a bad idea.
Enter SOLAR SAILOR.
An Australia based company, Solar Sailor harnesses the power of the sun and wind to develop hybrid maritime vessels. With its patentented technology and design, this company will soon become the de facto leader in efficient and reduced emissions boats. Already in operation in Australia, they plan to soon introduce a solar sailor ferry in the San Franciso bay. Their current line of vessels include ferries capable of carrying anywhere from 100 to 600 passengers, plus a line of luxury vessels for those boat afficionados with a penchant for a green planet. With a lower operational cost, these energy efficient boats are more profitable than their gas powered cousins and generate 50% less emissions.
The wings on a solar sailor move automatically, tracking the sun for optimal solar collection and the wind for optimal sail power, and can fold down against the boat in extreme wind situations.
One of the main advantages of a solar sailor ship is that it will be welcome in both developed and developing countries.
