Bio
Gualter Amaro
The way Luis focuses on the projects, the constant search for something new to do always, relentlessly, and with a touch of a perfectionist, demonstrates a genuine passion for what he does, and this is reflected in those around him. I was one of the lucky ones, and I will be forever grateful for the opportunities they gave me.

Boating is not only one of the most pleasurable ways to explore coastlines, lakes, reservoirs, and waterways, but also – frequently - one of the only means to access remote natural landmarks across the globe. However, the environmental costs and sound disturbance of traditional motorboats have led us to seek electrical solutions for aquatic mobility. The problem? Electric boats require charging, which in turn entails power infrastructures that are mostly absent from said natural landmark areas. Furthermore, nature preservation laws have tended to ban traditional explosion engines from lakes, reservoirs, and other waterways throughout the world. FaroBoats’ Solar Set will bring a fully autonomous, power grid-independent solution to leisure boating, professional aquatic activities and touristic enterprises that require quiet, safe, and environment-friendly watercraft. By coupling a custom-designed Solar Power Dock with integrated raising winch (Patent Pending) to our new Faro 5 electric boat, we have created the first fully autonomous electric powered boating solution that can operate anytime, anywhere in the world, regardless of any existing human infrastructure – the only possible exception being the arctic circles during arctic night. Besides Eco-Friendly Leisure Boating and Tourism Operations, our project will render possible the continuous, sustained, and sustainable exploration of the most remote waterways throughout the world. Private parties, Environment Protection Agencies, Tourist Enterprises, Remote Populations worldwide and even our Planet could benefit from the FaroBoats Solar Set Solution. Show less
