How much do you think it will cost to build a 27-foot prototype
with 3 bedrooms ?
Why don't you just put an Airstream on pontoons, and a telephone
pole for a mast, and hang an outboard on the back?
Now I KNOW you're a troll.
I was just kidding. Actually my design has 2 walk-in staterooms
forward plus a king-sized rear berth which isn't really a bedroom.
There are plenty of built boats or ways of building boats such that as
long as you keep yourself away from shallows in heavy seas nothing the
ocean can do to you, tumble you upside down, throw you underwater or
anything else (you're lashed to your bunk below), can keep you from
bobbing back up right side up safe and sound.
I don't know if it can be done with a water and um fuel ballast boat or
not though, probably.

some sufficiently wide interpretation such that it turns out
false...concept stretching will refute *any* statement, and will
leave no true statement whatsoever.
