When it happens to the hulls of ships, the vessels become less hydrodynamic, having to burn more fuel in order to move through the water. Although hulls can be coated with paint that kills the offending organisms, that paint also releases toxic substances into the surrounding water. Now, however, scientists from Germany’s Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials have developed a more environmentally-friendly paint, that uses electrolysis to control biofouling. <a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/electrolysis-anti-biofouling-paint/25362/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="25206"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/oru-origami-kayak-heads-for-production/25206/">Oru "origami" kayak heading for production</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/author/ben-coxworth/">Ben Coxworth</a></div> <div class="date">November 27, 2012</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_comments"><a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/oru-origami-kayak-heads-for-production/25206/#comments">2 Comments</a></div> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/oru-origami-kayak-heads-for-production/25206/pictures">5 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback hero_link" href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/oru-origami-kayak-heads-for-production/25206/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130116011034im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/orukayak.jpg" title="The Oru folding kayak should soon be heading into commercial production" alt="The Oru folding kayak should soon be heading into commercial production"/></a> <div class="summary"> <p> Just a couple of months ago, we first heard about the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/oru-folding-kayak/24224/" target="_blank">Oru</a> – a prototype touring kayak made from corrugated plastic, that can be folded up and carried like an art portfolio.

It's the third time in eight days that Larsen has piloted the Vestas Sailrocket to a new outright world record, raising the bar from 55.65 knots to 65.45 knots. It has been a spectacular week for sailing in general, with more than a dozen world speed sailing records broken at two different venues in Namibia. The outright speed sailing records for both 500 meters (initially 59.23 then 59.38 and now 65.45 kts) and one nautical mile (55.32 kts) were set in Walvis Bay by Australian Paul Larsen and the British-designed, inclined-rig hydrofoil Vestas SailRocket 2. Simultaneously, 600 km away, the annual Luderitz Speed Challenge has seen nine world outright speed records for sailboards established in just a week, including surpassing 50 knots (92.6 km/h) and 60 mph (52.14 kts) on a sailboard. The breaking of world records is almost certain to continue over the coming weeks, with Larsen now seemingly capable of pushing the outright record within reach of the 70 knot barrier and the now legendary Luderitz Speed Challenge continuing until December 16, with kiteboarders joining the event on December 3. <a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/new-world-speed-sailing-record-6537kts-75mph-121kmh/25065/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="25090"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/u-boat-worx-c-explorer-5-submarine/25090/">U-Boat Worx launches its C-Explorer 5 submarine in Monaco</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/author/ben-coxworth/">Ben Coxworth</a></div> <div class="date">November 19, 2012</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/u-boat-worx-c-explorer-5-submarine/25090/pictures">8 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback hero_link" href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/u-boat-worx-c-explorer-5-submarine/25090/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130116011034im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/ce5launch.JPG" title="U-Boat Worx has launched its new C-Explorer 5 model" alt="U-Boat Worx has launched its new C-Explorer 5 model"/></a> <div class="summary"> <p> Dutch submarine manufacturer U-Boat Worx has been developing it <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/u-boat-worx-starts-work-on-c-explorer-5-submarine/17354/" target="_blank">over the past two years</a>, but this September at the 22nd Monaco Yacht Show, it was finally launched – the C-Explorer 5, which the company describes as “the world’s first subsea limousine.” <a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/u-boat-worx-c-explorer-5-submarine/25090/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="25013"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/cisiro-bomb-sensor/25013/">CSIRO sensor detects explosives at sea</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/author/david-szondy/">David Szondy</a></div> <div class="date">November 15, 2012</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_comments"><a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/cisiro-bomb-sensor/25013/#comments">1 Comment</a></div> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/cisiro-bomb-sensor/25013/pictures">4 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback hero_link" href="/web/20130116011034/http://www.gizmag.com/cisiro-bomb-sensor/25013/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130116011034im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/cisiro-bomb-sensor-1.jpg" title="US Navy divers with a practice mine " alt="US Navy divers with a practice mine "/></a> <div class="summary"> <p> Clearing explosives is a major operation and removing the deadly residue of over a century of warfare is a never ending task.

In an effort to cut increasing fuel costs and reduce emissions, sails are set to once again prove their worth.
