Hey, I just saw something that could be great for the sailing cruiser,
someday. There is a company that has just created a solar fabric to be
used by the military for tents and a more practical way to charge up
laptops. I think that another useful application could be used as sails. I
can't remember the name of the company but I'll post the websight on the
links page when I can find it again.
