What if you saw this sailing by your water-front property...only with no one onboard! Here is an autonomous sailer from Harbour Wing. I think the rig is what is most interesting. http://http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/11/harbor-wing-ausv-can-sail-into-the-sunset-all-by-itself/
Sorry, I just realized that I posted a bad link... http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/11/harbor-wing-ausv-can-sail-into-the-sunset-all-by-itself/
Can you imagine, Ron? 'Round-the-buoys races without one spilled beer or having to listen to bad jokes from the crew! A Ted Turner favorite: "Did you hear what the blown-out jib had to say? I haven't a clue (clew)"
