I know people working on that. It works great. The one problem they still have is the recovery and folding of the sail.

Pfft, why reel it in. Just sail by and yeet the cargo onto the shore with a trebuchet.

I know some people will suggest to just let it go fly away into the ocean because a new kite is cheaper than recovering the kite.

People who have no idea how expensive sails are.

If only they could attach the sail to some kind of pole connected to the ship, so that this isn't an issue. Ridiculous, I know.
