Off to the Navigator with a bunch of cardboard boxes to clean out my

and the new owners plan to start spending time on it during the remainder
of
the winter in preparation for taking it to Chesapeake Bay in the spring.
Eight years have gone by since we bought "Soul Source". It's been a lot
of
fun and I'll miss having her.
But... now on to new things. (assuming we also sell the GB) which is
starting to look likely. There's a growing list of interested, potential
buyers who want to check it out in the spring after launching.
Mrs.E. agrees that I can't go boatless, so it will be fun researching and
shopping for the next "perfect" boat.
I've got my eyes on something, but I want to keep ShortWave guessing for a
while.

Tachon powered.
A tachyon is constrained to the space-like portion of the
energy-momentum graph. Therefore, it cannot slow down to subluminal
speeds. Even if tachyons were conventional, localisable particles,
they would still preserve the basic tenets of causality in special
relativity and not allow transport faster than light

Nah.
Woodward Effect engines - sometimes called Mach Effect, Impulse Engine
or Transient Mass Acceleration Effect which in experiments, actually
works.
The Woodward Effect takes advantage of the fact that any accelerated
mass will vary from lighter to heavier and vice versa depending on the
direction of acceleration. Logically, the average mass stays the same.
If you push on the mass when it is heavy and pull on it when it is
light, net thrust is generated resulting in motion.
That's what is going to power Eisboch's new boat.
