The other day we bumped into a friend at a red light. He was driving a solar-powered car, and we were in our spiffy new solar boat. The interaction went like so:

Solar Car Boy: “Hey, nice solar boat, what kinda mileage do you get with that thing?”

Listicles: “Oh, you know, 20 nauts per sunrise.”

SCB: “Wow, that sounds impressive.”

Listicles: “Yeah, well, congrats on finally getting on board the whole ’solar car’ fad, which, incidentally, rides in a solar boat.” (Speeds away laughing, bow bouncing on the smooth asphalt.)

The moral of the anecdote, dear readers, is don’t miss the boat – or get stuck at the light – with this new environmental vehicle trend. Because boy howdy we’d let you have it if we ever found out. Check out these 7 Awesome Solar Boats (that’s ours above).
