Presently, marine vessels that loose power, either sail or power boats, are at the mercy of the seas. This project will do preliminary design for a kite-based emergency propulsion device that can be used to self-rescue such a vessel in distress. The system will be designed to be simple enough to operate by a relatively untrained user, and able to safely deploy, operate and be retrieved in challenging sea states. It will also be stowable in a compact form on deck for prolonged periods while remaining fit for service.

目前，失去动力的海船，无论是帆船还是动力船，都任由大海摆布。这个项目 将对一种基于风筝的紧急推进装置进行初步设计，该装置可用于自救 遇险船只。该系统将被设计成足够简单以供相对未受过训练的用户操作， 并能够在具有挑战性的海况下安全部署、操作和回收。它还将被存放在一个 紧凑的形式在甲板上长时间使用，同时保持良好的服务状态。
