The 30 metre long Energy Observer commenced its journey from Saint Malo in northern Brittany almost two years ago.

The vessel is capable of creating its own hydrogen fuel by sucking up seawater while it sails at speeds of a little over 7 knots.

Fortean1 Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I'm guessing that Pak Nam Pran is the port. The town of Pran Buri is not on the coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
