[Electric Boats] Re:Batteries as ballast

 

Hi all,

http://www.solarsailor.com/

They are using rigid wings made of solar panels. The wings move automatically via computer, tracking the sun for optimal solar collection and the wind for optimal sail power. If it gets really windy, the wings fold down against the solar boat.

Cool stuff!
