Wind-powered land vehicle
Wind-powered vehicles have traditionally been associated with seafaring vehicles that, until the advent of steam engines, relied primarily upon winds which were used to drive the sails of such vehicles to their destinations. In the Western world, such sail-based wind propulsion on water persists in the modern day within primarily leisurely activities, such as sailing boats, sailing ships, yachting, and windsurfing. A special case is ice yachting on ice-covered water.
Terrestrial sail-based wind propulsion in the form of land sailing and land windsurfing are also popular recreational activities.
Terrestrial and seagoing wind propulsion by use of kites as propulsion subassembly are also wind-powered vehicles. OceanKite,〔(Anne Quémeré )〕 KiteShip,〔(KiteShip )〕 KitVes,〔(KitVes )〕 are just a few contemporary examples of kite-based wind-powered vehicles. Kite buggying is an ongoing wind-powered land vehice activity.
==(Wind-powered mechanical vehicles==
Wind-powered mechanical vehicles primarily use wind turbines installed at a strategic point of the vehicle. The wind power, which is converted into mechanical energy through gears, belts or chains, causes the vehicle to propel forward. While they are not in mainstream use yet, many schools have begun building the new technology and research into their curricula to teach students and to get them active in the subject. Seagoing electric propulsion where the electricity is derived from the kite subassembly is an ongoing activity by KitVes.〔)
