Have you been reading net.rec.boat?  I started a discussion there a few
days ago about the construction of cheap sailboats that might fit your
application.  The main objections to my proposal (non-rigid hull made
of cloth, rope, and hollow plastic beads towed by a parafoil kite) have
involved steering and high seas.  A cargo ship would not require a direct
route or a smooth ride.
