The solar powered party deck is really little more than the name implies.  Popular as a rental vehicle at resorts and marinas, it has a small motor that will push it along, and allow for a nice day with family and friends, and your own personal swimming platform.  Also makes a pretty decent fishing or diving boat.

Otec sells this boat as a pleasure craft.  What they don’t say in print is that it was originally developed for the military, and is nearly invisible to radar even in calm waters, and that the engine has special babbles to make it almost silent.  However, even without Otec putting that in its adverts, there seem to be an awful lot of these boats in the hands of drug dealers and smugglers.

Here's one that's hard to figure out, hard to figure out why that is.  A fishing boat with a caterpillar drive,  while certainly a novel approach, is kind of a wasted effort.  Still they are cheap, so they are mildly popular.
