There is, rotting by the Queen Elizabeth highway, an old freighter. It has masts for sails, and an engine for those windless days. If our grandparents could do it, why is is such a project now. i can remember popular mechanics showing sails on Freighters in the 1960's. It is just like Swath ships which make more sense for many uses but seem to be ignored for most.
