[QUOTE="anorlunda, post: 5863330, member: 455902"] As a minimum, floating objects travel at the speed of the water currents. Tidal currents or any other currents. A flat object that does not extend far above the surface won't be pushed much by wind. However, it is highly likely to be lifted off the water or flipped over in strong winds and high waves. The size and weight and distribution of weight are important. Think of it as designing a boat. [/QUOTE]
