Around the world in solar boat
Do you remember reading the voyages of those legendary explorers of the world. Have you gotten in their mind when they set sail, when they discovered new worlds and culture? Every new object, every new tree or animal they came into contact with for the first time must have thrilled them beyond words.
Now, with the aid of 93 feet catamaran, new world explorers are hoping to go around the world in just 120 days at a speed of 10 knots.
The catamaran is going to be fully powered bu photoelectric (solar) cells. This is a Swiss project and the cost will be around $13 million.
The boat is called "Planet Solar" whose image you see above.
