Pedal boats have been around for years but do require a lot of work to keep the thing moving. This latest concept gadget is a pedal powered boat with a built in solar panel. Should you get bored of pedalling away you can simply flick a switch and let the electric motor take over while you and three friends just chill out. The solar panel is responsible for charging the batteries that power the motor.
There isn’t too much to this boat and the design is fairly simple. I think I would prefer just a regular speed boat as they seem faster and fun.
