 * Thanks for the edit Spintendo! a note on the 2nd declined edit, "The first prototype boat to use the computer controlled solar sails was the Solarsailor. Originally used by Captain Cook Ferries in Sydney harbour the Solarsailor is now located in Newcastle and can be seen cruising the harbour for Rocksalt restaurant." is stated just under the title "Solar Sailor Vessel" in the cited article  Ultimateusv76 (talk) 23:59, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
 * @Ultimateusv76 The source states "Solarsailor is now located in Newcastle and can be seen cruising the harbour for Rocksalt restaurant." Rocksalt Restaurant in Newcastle is no longer in operation. The craft "Solarsailor" likewise no longer operates for the defunct restaurant, so it may be said that the given source does not confirm this (that neither the craft nor the restaurant are in operation.)

March update request
Hi, I'm back with another round of suggested updates. These changes are mainly restructuring and adding to the information available on the page. it should be noted, I have a conflict of interest as this request is made on behalf of OCIUS Technology.

I've rewritten the introduction to describe more clearly what OCIUS Technology provides and references it's previous name to clarify to distinguish the company name from its eponymous vessel "Solar Sailor".

I expect much confusion to me had from OCIUS' renaming that warrants a disambiguation under a 'History' section. I propose adding a set of subheadings under a new 'History' section that will also describe the company's leadership and 17 year history. Given the long history of the company, historical information is mostly found as a secondary source. I used multiple sources have been used to prove validity where possible and a quote parameter has been used in my citations to highlight the relevant excerpt.

The current sub heading describes only one vessel that was manufactured with little detail. I suggest we create another set of subheadings under Notable Vessels to include the BlueBottle USV as well as the Solar Sailor.These headings contain a short descriptions as to what they are and what they currently do. If editors think it's appropriate, I've written these paragraphs.

Most of these sources contain information which originated from the company — either (1) articles written by employees of the government and based on cursory information gleaned from the company; or (2) self reported by the company to the government in response to standard information disclosures required for any company submitting bids and/or requests to the government for funding. These are not reliable third party sources. Regards,      Spintendo       02:21, 5 March 2018 (UTC)
 * (1) I agree, the 2016 white paper is written by an employee of the government, the information in that publication is not sourced so it is a presumption that this information was self reported and a bigger presumption that it was in response to requests for funding. (2) The Ecocitizen Australia, Sydney Morning herald, Australian Defence Magazine, University of New South Wales Engineering and Tree Hugger and Pacific International are not government organisations and have no affiliation to Ocius Technology.
 * Been a while without a reply, i think you might have missed this. Please see above.
