Solar Power Cruisers

Float Silently with a Buffalo Solar Boat

A new water vessel, the Buffalo Solar Boat, wants to help boaters go green. If you care about the waters you're cruising around in, the traditional gas-powered boats posit something of a conundrum. Sailing is awesome, but requires more maneuvering skills.

The Buffalo Solar Boat has a battery that can provide power on cloudy days and during nighttime expeditions. The boat isn’t very cute, but going green carries an attractiveness all on its own. The company is taking orders now on their water-soluble Prius.
