Czeers shows off "world's first" solar powered speedboat

There aren't many sorts of vehicles that haven't been solarized, but it looks like Dutch company Czeers has managed to find one, with it now showing off what it claims to be the world's first solar powered speedboat. Dubbed the MK1, the solar panel-ensconced vessel can apparently reach a top speed of 30 knots (or roughly 35 miles per hour), all the while operating in relative silence. The company doesn't seem to have overlooked the other parts of the boat either, with it also boasting touchscreen-based control system and a suitably luxurious leather interior. No word on a possible price or release date just yet, naturally, but you can catch a glimpse of it in action in the video after the break.
