1. An apparatus comprising:

  • a structure for use in water comprising a composite structure that comprises at least;

    a first carbon nanotube infused material imparting a first functionality to the structure, the first functionality selected from electrical resistance, damage sensing, tensile strength, compressive strength, de-icing, shear strength, flexural strength, crack resistance, electromagnetic interference shielding, lightning strike protection, bio-fouling prevention, thermal conductivity, and radar absorption; and

    a second carbon nanotube infused material imparting a second functionality to the structure, the second functionality selected from electrical resistance, damage sensing, tensile strength, compressive strength, de-icing, shear strength, flexural strength, crack resistance, electromagnetic interference shielding, lightning strike protection, bio-fouling prevention, thermal conductivity, and radar absorption.
