I agree that it is neat, in concept.
From a design perspective, it's a total piece of crap. Tortion forces will wreck that box-shaped bullshit.
Several years ago he was quoted saying he hoped to sail the 95-foot-wide vessel, which spans five floors and can hold more than 5,000 passengers, to Brazil. But those plans fell through.
Those plans fell through? That comes as a surprise. Who wouldn't want to help drag a shitty broken barge boat across the Atlantic ocean in a tugboat. They could probably make the trip, but only because it's made of wood (and they surely wouldn't get there in one piece, hence the multiple tugs).
I doubt it will even make the trip to Israel; unless they reinforce the hull using modern materials.
I can't wait to read the follow up story.
