The 'Ra'
is Britain's first passenger-carrying solar-powered boat.
Designed
and built in Germany and named after the Egyptian sun god, she
travels silently on the Broads.
Costing
£55,000, the
boat's maiden voyage was in September 2000.
The futuristic
30ft, 12-seater boat is powered by three rows of seven solar
panels.
The Broads
is Britain's largest nationally protected wetland.
Its rivers,
broads (shallow lakes), marshes and fens make it an area which
support many rare plants and animals, and the
Broads Authority is keen to promote environmentally friendly
boating.
