Why not design a turbine that can be 'sunk' within the Gulf Stream .. No hazard to navigation and a 'continuous' energy source .. There are numerous ocean currents of sufficient energy to reliably 'harvest' .. I'm from coastal New England at the east end of Long Island Sound .. We have a very strong local current and diurnal tides ie Two high and two low tides per 24 hours .. This current flows between Fisher's Island and coastal Ct at rates in excess of 5 knots in both directions for several hours everyday .. It's called the "Race" due to the fast flow rate .. Triff ..
