1. can this man make it across the atlantic in half a porta potty? I have my doubts but I'm pulling for ya fellow defecator.

2. Hell no….

3. I love creazy ideas like that 😀

4. Do you need a sponsor?

5. You could almost patent that design for a single person, do everything life raft 🙂

6. He expects the trip to take 90 days and is planning to take 75 days worth of rations?

7. 2:58 i think old dude spit inside…

8. This won't end well

9. Have you tested if there is enough floatation even when completely full of water.
   So you can at least stay afloat while pumping water.
   Just Incase the hatch lid is broken by a boom or /latches fail and or the air vents fail.
   Also cut those long bolts of on the underside of the hatch hinge.
   And I’d carry a wet suit maybe at least a zip up wetsuit jacket. I traveled from Sydney to Hobart in a 4m inflatable boat in 2017 and I was soaked to the bone and really cold and that was probably the hardest part of my trip.
   Last but not least I’d take it out and do some sea trials in some really big surf/swell just to test what might fail.

10. You want to put dome nuts on them bolt threads tidy them up

11. Is the compass hidden from view, behind the sea anchor?

12. This is auto-mutilation..I can't see it differently..if you need this to feel that you're alive then something is really bad inside of you. He acts al cheery and light, but you can hear the clinging teeth and almost feel the tightened muscles above his but. And yes, these muscles are right: don't do it. There are other – very much more compassionate ways – to heal yourself. I'm not talking about sailling the ocean..although mad that is daring and relatively safe if you know what you're doing. I'm talking about isolation for 90 days in a very very tight hole, the damage to his body and skin and all muscles and the severe pain that will cause, the fear he even can't imagine to be caught in really heavy storms getting lift up for metres huge and dropping metres in seconds hours after hours sometimes, getting tossed by the ocean, dipping, rolling over.. his solar panel won't last and he'll be alone with himself and the sea. This is not romantic or heroic..this is stupid. My God, this man has kids for crying out loud he can be with them for 90 days and hug them, dance with them, love them..but he choses auto-mutilation..why don't anyoone stop him?

13. Rabid.

14. He's got zero chance of making it. Good job he's got a transponder for when he inevitably needs rescuing.

15. This guy must be tiny

16. He needs to bring a go pro with him

17. Wow that’s a Yacht, lol. I probably still can’t afford it

18. How you going to have a shat and bath in that thing 😂

19. Not much sleep going to had in that contraption 😬

20. Legend has it…after this trip he’s gonna do it again bare back commando style 😂

21. That tiny boat is a total joke. How are you supposed to lay down when you are exhausted and sea sick and you feel like you are going to die? What are you going to do when you have 20 foot waves crashing over the top? I wouldn't pay 9 cents for that POS. On the other hand, good luck to you sir. I wish you the best and I hope you make it. This will be interesting and I will be watching.

22. The lost Dr Who episode:
    "The Floating Tardis."

23. Who funds this!

24. it's a buoy with a sail good luck

25. head injury anyone?

26. Can the sails be used like a hammock when the sea is calmish? Can the hatch be shut from the outside? He will need to exercise and maybe sleep in the sea at times? Perhaps the equivalent of the bottom half of a wet suit secured to the boat, submerged in the water which he can drop into when he wants leg exercise, like treading water?

27. Torture.

28. He may need a port side psychiatrist.

29. I'd go MAD for sure in a space that small. You'd have to keep the hatches battened all day sometimes. And any storm would find you rolling all the time. Good Luck!!!

30. The human bobber… This should be a fun voyage..

31. his passion is absolutely incredible

32. Don't they say "It's not the size of the boat, it's the motion of the ocean." 😂

33. Don’t forget your EPIRB

34. Viking blood best of weather for you may the seas be on your side

35. On any vessel making a crossing, there are always repairs, repairs and more repairs.

36. I literally lol'd at you calling that a yacht. That's a buoy. 😂 I heard about this last year, I live in St John's and I plan to be there when he launches, I have to meet this guy.

37. All the best Andrew, a proper Englishman, no big girls blouse there!

38. Hardcore!

39. I like it 🐣 awesome idea😂

40. This isn't sailing. This is torture or a punishment of some kind.

41. A world class accident waiting to happen…

42. When is he planning on headed out?

43. I wouldn't like to get leg cramp in that boat in a storm!

44. Hope he took a hat

45. No god dam way……..

46. Has he been on a sailboat before? Everything breaks…. That seems like a lot of rigging that he thinks will be reliable. Simplicity and redundancy… this boat seems complicated and can’t have many redundant systems.

47. Hope you're well lit at night, you going to be hard for a ship to see or anyone for that matter. Mad man?

48. No thanks..
    Good luck mate!

49. 'why do this?', i ask my self.

50. I think there's a bunch of extremely well thought out ideas here. Also, I think the Ocean will ravish that thing quickly.
