Blimey the old OzMobile !! I bet they play 'The Pub with No Beer' when it passes through .. A little utilitarian for me ... could buy a nice bungalow over there for less than A$175k !
Thinking about boating electric power, we will have a huge amount of knowledge regarding this and such general issues as pressure proofing, drive trains, gland packing etc from submarine manufacture and usage and undersea exploration craft - all working in far more hostile conditions than MOST waterways...
Here's a leccy long 'un ( no gas to leak is a major benefit ) ALL Electric narrow boat with links to 'Whisper' ..
Still wondering about the application of compressed air engines ... refills could be problematical .. not insurtmountable tho'.
I must say there is so much info and excellent web sites on the subject of narrowboating ... Refreshing and interesting .. Always nice to read about the projects undertaken.
