3.5m latex flexible marine energy converter in the lab, 50m composite flexible marine energy converter at sea

We just made 2 series of experiments :
1. 3.5m Latex flexible marine energy converter in the Southampton University Towing Tank.

2. 50m Composite flexible marine energy converter at sea in Selsey.
3.5m Energy_Animal flexible marine energy converter, wave + wind + sun powered mesh
communication device.
Coming early march.
There will soon be a short video explaining the experiments and a
PDF with the measurments and how to's here : https://sites.google.com/a/opensailing.net/www/labs/energy_animal
