The University of Michigan's school of Engineering was doing the same thing in 1965. Now, with room-temperature semi-conductors just around the corner, this ball might actually get rolling.

With the poorly conducting seawater you need very high magnetic fields to get any kind of suitable thrust. Copper coils have too much resistance and would thus burn to much energy and generate way too much heat. So you need something without resistance -> superconductors. Already employed in accelerator rings, super fast electric switches and band pass filters for cell phones.Comment

Love to see how this will run in the Dead Sea.
Salt water pool 10x less saltier than the ocean.
