MY 'LEVITATING OBJECT' INVENTION

[guest1289]

The following is fairly useless,  but it would look great

Imagine boats floating on a  large-flat-magnetic-field (  the field would be curved up at the edges so the boats don't fall out ),   and the boats could have little weights hanging from their keels to give them stability

Now I can't work out  why the following idea would not work .

(    I would have thought this idea would have been possible for well over a century,  and that if it was possible,   I would already have seen it sometime  )

(  Obviously the   large-flattish-magnet   providing the  magnetic-field  for the boats to float on,  would have an unusual shape to successfully achieve the effect  )

Idea :
'Imagine boats floating on a  very-large-flat-magnetic-field (  the  magnetic-field  would be curved up at the edges so the boats don't fall out ),   and the boats could have little weights hanging from their keels to give them stability'

The  easiest  way to achieve my idea/invention  below,  would be for the boat containing permanent-magnets,   to be repelled/levitated  above  a flat-surface  made of a diamagnetic-material like bismuth

I red and saw a video from a russian clever inventor,shows a way to link to magnets without contact...interesting indeed.

(+++)(-)   (+-)   

You could use that to achieve a way to tracht(traction) two bodies linked witout contact...i don't remember the name of the linkage---

Below, are 3 diagrams showing  3  different methods for this  toy levitation idea  .

(  I cannot build anything ,  and I don't have any diamagnetic materials ,  etc,  etc  )
