Steven Roberts, owner of this custom pedal/wind/solar-powered micro-trimaran known as the Microship, is currently looking to hand over the Microship which he built with his own hands to a new owner – hopefully someone as adventurous or “mad” as him. This unique boat comes with a pedal, sail and electric propulsion, alongside hydraulically-retractable wheels which make amphibious landings a possibility. It sleeps only one in the cabin, while an 8-channel peak-power-tracker with thruster control, LED navigation lights, stock marine VHF radio, and a 480-watt solar power system keeps the entire Microship running. If you happen to have some serious coin (to the tune of $73,000), the Microship can be yours to do as you please. Would you take it for a spin on an adventure of a lifetime, or donate it to a museum?
