Eco boat show November 18 at Bayview Anchorage, Pittwater Australia

An interesting boat show focussing on eco technology will be held at Pittwater NSW, Australia.  Lightweight power generation solutions are of particular interest to multihull sailors.

Eco Boat Show

Is this a world first? I'm pretty sure it's Australia's first:

Eco Boat Show - Sunday November 18 at Bayview Anchorage, Pittwater. There's no entry fee - it's just a display from enthusiastic individuals and businesses of stuff that you can use right now to make boating more enjoyable and sustainable.

All sorts of goodies on display like:
- transom mounted Watt&Sea hydrognerator:

- Greenline 33 solar hybrid - not strictly a multihull, but very smooth nonetheless:

- Moondog the solar cat utility boat - very multihull, if not so smooth as the Greenline:
