This boat was designed as an environmentally friendly river cruiser. 

In 1998 it was selected winner of the "River Boat 2000" Design Competition, organised jointly by the British Marine Industries Federation and the Environmental Agency (U.K.).

It is a low-wash, low-drag catamaran, powered by an electric outboard motor and equipped with an array of photovoltaic panels to recharge the batteries.
