The Picnic and Picnic Sport motorboats are a line of boats, offered by Rand Boats, that make for a lightweight and eco-friendly electric alternative to your typical gas-guzzling boats.
These boats are capable of sailing along for up to 16 hours at a maximum speed of 13 km/h, although this changes depending on the motor and battery options taken up. The boats can comfortably seat as many as 10 people at a time and are fairly lightweight at 180 kg. Various options can be had including a steering wheel in place of a tiller, a wooden deck and an adjustable table.
These motorboats prove that you don't have to guzzle gas to have a good time out on the water, and that electric boats can be just as convenient and fun if not more.
