So, we all want to do the Great Loop! The biggest cost is fuel 4 sure. Well, the thing is, you really only need a decent, 25hp electic motor to cruise most of the ICW and rivers at 4 - 7 knots. That's a good size generator or, as we often call them now, fuel cell.
I'm always looking for new stuff because I manage stock portfolios. Here's the first fuel cell I've ever seen that will really work. It runs on basically anything and they will finally begin selling them for homes winter of '09. Wait until the marine version...
