Dave,
I agree.  Decent power collection at slow speeds (around 5kts) is our holy grail of successful regen.

Keith,
It looks like their using the amazingly expensive french hydrogenerators (more than $7000 US each) that have been discussed on this board more than once this year.  It must be nice to have two... ;)

Fair winds,
