    Does anyone know anything about the differences between these two types of
    turbines and which one would be better for sailing. I would think that a
    horizonal would be better because there would be no worries on the
    direction of wind and the blades would not be as much of a hazard. I
    wonder about the efficientcy of the two and types and is it nessesary to
    keep them low or high? I have very little knowledge of sailing or wind
    turbines but a lot of interest in both, so please excuse my ignorance.
