The only other idea I can come up with would be putting the mast on a swivel that is attached to the exterior hull assembly, and having it...
Good analysis, and exactly the reason I put the idea up here for critique, thank you for taking the time to explain your views. I won't give up on...
Yes, correct, it's the rolling that is eliminated, not the pitch, stupid mistake. In further discussion I will refer to them as hulls and not...
Seems like a great idea to me, maybe for some people getting thrown around in a moving ship is a part of the traditional sailing experience they...
I was looking for constructive criticism though, so thank you, I guess the next area I need to put research into is how exactly wing sails work.
Yes, I have been on cats, but I didn't do research into the sail area relative to water resistance before I made my model, I was just in a hurry...
The idea is that the pontoons keep the part of the hull that is occupied elevated above the water, and it is suspended so that it can rotate,...
Does the youtube embed not work on this site? I'm not having the video show up. . .
l2KbhfrcBjA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2KbhfrcBjA Just did a 3D design of this boat idea I had this morning.
I wrote a previous thread that didn't get any responses, but I was reading once about an invention that apparently used superheated steam in a...
I agree, the technology behind fuel cells, electrolysis, metal hydride storage media, etc seem daunting at first, but operation of them if they...
I think everyone is forgetting that running a fuel cell is an energy transfer based on a chemical reaction, so producing new fresh water isn't...
Another interesting idea is simply burning the hydrogen and oxygen as a fuel in a traditional internal combustion engine with no emissions. The...
I was wondering what effect the flow of air under the boat would have myself.
Also, I might mention, I suspect that the higher pressures of self-compressing electrolysis would make the process require more energy....
Hydrogen can either be produced directly from water through electrolysis, or can be made from natural gas by cracking the molecules. Compression...
Looks awesome, and only sits a foot deep in the water. It looks like the pontoons are made up of multiple segments as well. I'm going to have to...
I don't really understand the idea behind making it a wet sub. . . seems like a trip across the atlantic underwater would be hell to me!
I've seen listings for smaller inflatables of course, I was wondering more about the size potential of such craft, and often people on this forum...
Okay, this thread is getting flat out strange now. . .
