lifelong question

In line with my lifelong passion for water, I crossed the gulf stream about 70 times. You learn to realize the awesome power of the stream. It never quits, and never varies much. Now I know it is very deep at it's axis but near the shore of Florida, it's maybe 600 or so feet deep. I have always wondered why you never hear of plans to build turbines on the bottom that could provide endless power
and would never quit. Anybody got an anawer?
