This document discusses the development of a Korea-style mud boat for marine tourism by the Honam Sea Grant Program. It describes the program's research on 11 eco-tourism villages which found that current mudflat tours pose safety and environmental issues. The program worked with experts and locals to develop a safer, more comfortable and eco-friendly mud boat concept. The final design was a 4.71m hybrid-powered boat that can carry 4 adults across mudflats, water and roads, helping promote the Honam Sea Grant Program's mission of life, science and happiness from the sea.
