ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for deriving energy from waves, the apparatus comprising a chamber (1) adapted to float in water but having a water plane area such that its vertical oscillating movement is substantially damped relative to the height of waves in the water in which it is floating, a chamber inlet port (5) at one end of the chamber adapted to face into a wavetrain, and vertical side plates (7A,7B) delivering compressed air to a manifold and thence to an outlet port (9) and a baffle (8).
