Nobody's seen it because it doesn't exist. It is a pipe dream. Notice on
the site there are no photographs of it in action. Just drawings. It
can't work. You cannot harness enough wind power with a windmill on a
boat to make the entire untethered vessel proceed directly upwind. It
isn't going to happen because it defies the laws of physics.

I see they are taking donations:

Scammers like this can always count on donations from the gullible. Probably
was the reason it was posted here in the first place.
