  1. toilet right off the cliff…. its not the first world you dilly, nobody is there to put in sewer lines or build them toilets. Nick you seem a decent person but the editing on these videos is so bad.

  2. What I think is really funny Is that here in the so called educated world So many people don't know The fact That dude was just spitting Right there. We are all the same

  3. I love Ghana. Wished I could move there. Been there three times and when I leave I feel so sad for weeks. I hate the USA. Found my roots there and have not been the same in my life. I stoggle here in this white man land.

  4. I don't think electric motors are the answer here, solar and batteries are hugely expensive. 10kwh of LiFePO4 batteries will run 2k+ USD which will provide roughly the same energy as a gallon of gas assuming 30% or so efficiency. Lead acid batteries can be used instead, but in exchange their lifespan is far shorter so the long term expense isn't much different(slightly worse in all likelihood). So for a motor roughly equivalent to the one shown in this video in order to handle ocean currents it would be about 10k, then for approximately 4 hours of run time it would cost about 30k USD for batteries. A new 50HP outboard costs a minimum of around 5k, but they can get used ones which just isn't an option for electric outboard motors. So they'd have to use more than 10000 gallons of gas before hitting the break even point, and this isn't even taking into consideration the size of the solar array you'd need, wiring, MPPT, that's another 10-15k USD. Solar is great for certain applications, but I'd wager in their situation with whatever boat they'd be operating the equipment would get water damaged long before ever getting near the break even point. The solar array would also be rather large(3000 square feet or 279 square meters).

  5. You cant have a boat run on solar…..it would take a mile x mile amount of solar panels and the batteries weight would be huge….the boat would need to be huge….you should know this, if they think petrol is expensive…..solar is like 3-10 times the price…..petrol is the cheapest energy source humans have ever had ever.
