Autonomous BOAT-- DRIVERLESS
The first unmanned and autonomous sailboat has successfully crossed the Atlantic Ocean, completing the journey between Newfoundland, Canada, and Ireland. The 1,800-mile journey took two and a half months. It was part of the Microtransat Challenge for robotic boats and bolsters the possibility of unmanned boats being used for long-haul missions. This could include everything from ocean research to surveillance.
