Or, if there is a hell of a lot of wind like in a major typhoon or North Sea blow— what then. These don’t appear to be retractable back into the ship. Oftentimes ships have to power INTO the wave force direction to survive a storm, and not be broken in two.

There is almost always wind at sea. That’s why they were called “Trade Winds”

This idea has been around for decades.
