Amen Kirsti....and read "Polluting for Pleasure"
by Andre Mele..It will strenghten your resolve. The
Waste and Pollution associated with pleasure boating is
appauling. And the folks associated with this association
(Elco, Duffy, Donaldbaer, Solomon Technologies, Mr.
Morton Ray and even NASA) are living proof that there is
a market and it is growing. Its growing because
today the technology does exist to have "drop-in
replacements" for diesels and gasoline motors that not only
quiet and clean, but just as powerful with much longer
operational life. Batteries were a hurtle in the past but
today they are getting better every day and fossil fuel
generator technologies provide infinite range while using
fossil fuel sparingly and efficiently. You need only
define your cycle of use to determine average continuous
run time then select the hybrid combination to
achieve it. It is only a matter of time now.
