  1. Not boring at all- thank you, and everyone else who has given helpful input in to the post! Has anyone used insulation like kingspan, celotex or sempatap on their boat or seen anything on the web about it? had a look and can't find much!! Thanks
  2. The green roof insulates and is attractive. The fuel cell is a silent generator ( no don't sell them but may look into that!!), looking at wood burning stove/ boiler to burn logs/ pellets ( carbon neutral) but supply seems to be problem. Have looked at heating windows ( only the internal ones! ) which have low running power requirements and other benefits. The boat design is so that it is as passive as possible so cool in warm weather/ warm in cold weather! Tis tricky, the rest of the planning has been yers but the fuel cell option I have only just found out about and really like the sound of it but need to find someone that use them in reality. I know they used in a lot of caravans and yachts.
  3. Hello! A newbie here! We couldn't find the right sort of boat we wanted and have taken plunge after getting a mooring to get a boat builder on the job. it starts in a couple of weeks. Firstly, it has got to be efficient then as eco as possible as about to get second generation in our family! Was wondering if anyone had any comments about have a living (grass) roof, using a fuel cell and/ or solar panels, eco efficient insulation and I was just wondering has anyone looked at getting a fuel cell to run their boat as I heard from this company I was talking to that quite a few "people who live on barges" are powering their boats with them and they can have zero emissions. Apparently they can run on gas, ethananol, methonal, bio-fuels and even (green) hydrogen! Am not massive yogurt weaver or anything but sort of trying to be cost/ planet / future conscious. Sorry if this is wrong place to post! Many thanks! PS Not efficient to spell efficienct like that in title but can't work out how to change it!!
