Windmill Driven Boat

This boat can sail in any direction, including directly into the wind. The wind-rotor drives a propeller under the water. Has been patented. The project was shelved, but has now been revived as an ideal low emission answer to climate change concerns. This boat is now up for sale,
contact me for more information. www.sailwings.net/forsale.html .... I am based in Norwich, UK.

Now how is that the boat still moves when rotor doesn't turn ?Is it battery powered and the rotor is running a generator ?

@losttreasurehunt

Any boat on the water in a wind will be pushed downwind by the wind. There is no battery or generator.

Hi again.

How is this craft propelled when travelling with the wind? Are the rotors feathered the the opposite way or something? I see the mill won't rotate fully forward I don't get it....Thanks.

@slugfoot1 Thanks for your interest. It is all described if you look at the website sailwingsdotnet - Windmill boats - "what is rotary sailing"

@slugfoot1 You need to replace the word "dot" with a real dot, because Youtube don't accept web addresses on replies.

Great, I live in the Philippines at the shore. Many fishermen are using still the paddle to go fishing. Thanks for posting.

Very interesting concept; it might not be able to compete with the sail before long in term of speed, but sailing directly into the wind is in itself a great achievement!

[productionlab]

Really Amazing you are a achiever
