Abstract

The design and initial testing of a solar powered fishing boat are presented. The concept vessel is a 4.2-m length overall (LOA) mono hull keel boat powered by an efficient DC-DC interleaved boost converter. The effective utilization of solar insolation is ensured by using MPPT. The paper will also discuss the details about the ship shape design, propulsion system, electrical section design etc., taking in account of minimum weight of the boat and minimum price of fabrication. The boat is designed to meet the requirements of fishermen in the backwaters.
