Solar Craft: The first solar boat (1974)<\/h2>\n

The first known solar boat - Solar Craft I - dates back to 1974 and was the prototype of the Englishman Alan T. Freeman. Solar Craft I is a small catamaran measuring 2.5 meters in length. Equipped with a removable rudder and a propeller powered either by pedals or by the solar cells, Solar Craft I can reach a top speed of 6 km\/h using solar energy alone. Alan T. Freeman would go on to develop other solar-powered devices in the 1970s and 1980s, including a solar-powered bicycle and a solar-powered car, the first to be officially registered in England.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
