Reportedly it's not a concept anymore as the designer further developed the project with the Numero Design agency.

@ILikeMacsWhatAboutIT: I'm pretty sure if manatees designed it, this boat would not have any blades on the propeller [as shown in the third pic]...

MADNESS!, why you would need some sort of sail device to capture that wind, making some sort of "sail boat" if you will. surely these technologies do not exist.

I imagine that would allow a larger-capacity battery than just the solar charging alone would, and allow for _some_ laziness on a cloudy day.
