Something for People Who are Curious and Not Scared about any Change

Since people are scared  - from different ways to build homes, to different ferry schedules to...... - here something completely different.

Something which could change our way of life - on Thetis and even the community hall :) - and make all more energetic independent and really sustainable. Sure this way of generating energy will take some years till really ready and working but if you are open for a change and can think out of the box.... - where there is a will there is a way.

Not sure if it was the same people but a quieter boat loaded with really a lot of lights was sitting in the cut near Telegraph Marina at 4am. When I turned on our deck lights they took off towards the pub. Check your belongings near the water.
