Default wind generators

Tow a propeller driven one if you sail. Wind driven ones are a nuisance
going all the time in the marina where you can plug into the mains if you
really need to charge batteries

Don't even think about it.... If you want people to hate you get

one.
If you want people
to think your rude get one. If you want your boat to look stupid get

one.

I can understand the resentment regarding noise, but it seems like a wind
genny is right in tune with the philosophy of sailing.
