INTRODUCTION
Dan Hawk is an electronics guru. His favourite thing in all the world apart from building gadgets, is his Paris-Dakar off road Honda motorcycle upon which he off-roaded the outback of his native Australia, a lot of the time on one wheel, that was until he met John Storm and helped John to piece together the SolarNavigator boat, which he now maintains is the the ultimate in marine architecture and his position as first mate, to be the dream job of all time.
Dan's goal is to keep all the boat's system in peak operating condition and where improvements can be made, to custom develop the control systems, with John (a coded welder) fabricating the mechanicals.
Dan is also a keen sports game fisherman. He never misses an opportunity to tell about the one that got away, even though his catch history is legendary in the angling world, so that he hardly needs to add to folklore.
The pictures on this page are to provide actors an idea of the kind of portrayal film companies are likely to want. If you are an actor interested in playing this part, or if you are an agent representing an actor who may be interested, please contact Blueplanet Productions in confidence.
The part requires travel to exotic geographical locations and time at sea aboard a trimaran, diving in the oceans, etc.

We
are looking for a scriptwriter
and a director to help turn this
marine adventure
into a 3D film, as part of the
John Storm franchise. If
you might be interested to come
in on such a project at grass
roots level please contact Blueplanet
Netdirect Productions. The
story blend of fact and
fiction is ideal adventure film
material of the Moby Dick / Free
Willy genre (Moby Dick was based
on real whale attacks on whaling
boats). FACT: A boat
called Planet
Solar
completed the 1st solar
powered circumnavigation in May of 2012
at an average speed of 2.36 knots (3mph)
at a power to weight ratio of .99Kw/ton.
The 32,100 mile voyage took just over
585 days (=72.63 miles/day).
FACT: Solar
Navigator (the real craft) has a power
to weight ratio significantly more than 2Kw/ton and a
superior hull-form such that it
can produce turns of speed for
film sequences.
