Funny... And we think that our boats are bad in the wind, can you imagine a 15mph cross wind in that thing!

No kidding...I was also wondering about how stable it is, then noticed on their website it looks like it had optional "outriggers"....

That looks like an answer to a question nobody asked! It also looks extremely UN-seaworthy! Think how terrifying it would be to be trapped inside that thing if it capsized. Pretty cool engineering exercise, though.

Optional? At $850K+ (and as unstable/unseaworthy as that thing looks), outriggers should be standard, IMHO! :rolleyes:

Seriously, though, one could have a nice motorhome AND a very nice big boat for that same money.
