EARTH FIELD MAGNETIC PROPELLED BOAT WITH ROTATING MAGNET 2

A slightly scaled up model goes south, the opposite of the smaller model, so it seems this is the right direction.

But it is pretty confusing so we'll keep an open mind to some other factor.

Anyway it seems like when the CW rotating magnet with it's north pole outward passes the magnets on the side of the boat with it's south pole on the inside while moving south the outside of the boat is pushed south and takes the whole boat with it.

It is sort of twisting the boat with the compass torque.

To contrast that when it passes the magnets on the side of the boat while moving north there is no transfer of inertia because the entire boat freely rotates with no resistance from the compass torque with the turning north end of the magnet on the side of the boat only turning north towards the Earth's north pole.

Stay tuned:)
