You have all seen hybrid vehicles on the road, but get ready for hybrid boats! Several vessels are presently under development that can cruise indefinitely without using petroleum-based fuel. The source of their power is a Solar Array on the roof of the vessel which powers a battery pack and an electric drive-train technology.
When needed (such as when motoring at night) a diesel generator provides power. I suspect that we will be seeing a lot more boats with this kind of technology as fuel prices continue to climb. Check out the following
