A101 feet long, with 50 feet abeam, 60 tons giant-yacht made its visit to Hong Kong on 12 Aug. after his last visit from Manila. I have seen it when it visited Manila whiles I went there for business trip.
Made in Germany, with an investment of 24 Million dollars, an eco-mega-solar-power yacht, driven by Plant Solar team plans to take this catamaran all the way around the globe using only power from the Sun! A way to demonstrate the green clean energy for seafarer. When the solar panels are extended, it covers 5,382 sq feet, thus to offer 103Kw of power to drive the motor propeller quietly for a speed of 8 knots. At night or when there is no sun, the massive 13 tons lithium-ion battery cell chain will provide reserved power to move the catamarans at a speed of 7 knots for three days before the power bank is drawn exhausted!.
This is a desire design for the survival craft after Dec 21 2012. as there is question how far we need this boa to carry us to the nearest island where we will start our new era for human life….
