like a very normal part of the maritime environment, the fact is that the presence of such organisms makes a vessel much less streamlined. The harder it is for a ship to slice through the water, the harder its engines have to work and the more fuel it uses. Although there are some anti-fouling coatings that can be applied to hulls, these are often toxic, and can leach into the surrounding water and harm marine organisms. Some recent efforts at eco-friendly solutions have included using <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006121942/http://www.gizmag.com/go/6905/" target="_blank">fungus</a> and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006121942/http://www.gizmag.com/seed-inspired-anti-fouling-surface/19094/" target="_blank">seed-inspired coatings</a>, but scientists at Sweden's University of Gothenburg are now reporting success with the use of molecules created by a certain type of bacteria. <a href="/web/20111006121942/http://www.gizmag.com/bacteria-barnacles-anti-fouling-ships/20062/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20111006121942/http://www.gizmag.com/waterbuggy/20045/">Waterbuggy – a low speed sea-scooter for kids and families</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20111006121942/http://www.gizmag.com/author/pawel-piejko/">Pawel Piejko</a></p> <p><em>13:50 October 4, 2011</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="/web/20111006121942im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111006121942/http://www.gizmag.com/waterbuggy/20045/#comments">2 Comments</a> </p> <p><img src="/web/20111006121942im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111006121942/http://www.gizmag.com/waterbuggy/20045/picture/143922/">13 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20111006121942/http://www.gizmag.com/waterbuggy/20045/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006121942im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/waterbuggy.jpg" title="Designed by Bodrum Marine Group, the Waterbuggy is equipped with a 10HP engine and offers ..." alt="Designed by Bodrum Marine Group, the Waterbuggy is equipped with a 10HP engine and offers ..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>Riding a high speed <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006121942/http://www.gizmag.com/tag/pwc/" target="_blank">personal water craft</a> (PWC) can be an exhilarating experience, but not everyone likes the adrenaline or the engine's roar.

Designed by the Turkey-based Bodrum Marine Group, the Waterbuggy offers a maximum speed of 8-10 km/h (5-6 mph) and can be reportedly operated by a child.
