Surfing Ship
USA Patent Issued In 1995

Need speed?  Airplanes travel faster than ships because air mass is thinner than water.  Less mass means less drag and this allows planes to travel several hundred miles per hour while ships drag along a 20 mph.  But, water creates buoyancy which allows ships to carry tons and tons more cargo than planes.  So our ship shape inventor came up with a novel hybrid,  the Surfing Ship!  That's right, a ship that rides the surf, hanging ten on massive ocean waves.  And not only does this ship surf, it actually creates it's own waves!  According to the inventor, "a set of symmetric nested concavities of increasing camber" (whatever that means) on the bottom of the ship, generate a wave large enough for the ship to ride it's crest, allowing it to zoom along, propelled by four jet engines.  We like the inventors approach, and if it really works, that's very cool.  But we're thinking this could only work on Lake Placid.  Every time man tries to control Mother Nature, Mother always wins.
