Yes , it is a good read , and raises lots of pros , and cons.
I still believe my "tack" is a good one , motorsailing , using electric power.
But I would have a hybrid setup , if I could ever afford it.

It's a good read although nothing new. It's a shame they didn't work out the controller issues, they sounded like pretty basic problems.
I wonder how they would have done with a hydro-generator.
