'windmill boat'


Windmill Boat - Totally Absurd !

 

Lack of wind can sure put a damper in the sport of sailing. Wind is unpredictable so some sailboats carry a gas powered motor. However, fuel is not cheap and causes pollution, so what is a politically correct Skipper to do? How about taking a three hour tour in this invention patented in 1981!

The amazing Windmill Boat has an umbrella-shaped sail that slowly rotates to propel the boat and generate electricity.

The electricity generated is then stored in batteries for later use and can be used to power your cabin appliances as well. Hey Professor, you will eliminate air and water pollution at the same time! The most absurd thing of all; when positioned straight up, the sail can serve as a gigantic parasol to shade Ginger and Marianne from the sun. No kidding!
