A 100' single handed monster. I think we're reaching the limits of boat one person can manage.

Maybe. But a proa with the same sail area would be longer, lighter, cheaper and (probably) faster. Worth checking the smaller version at Sailing Anarchy Design Contest.


But would it be safer in the Southern Ocean?


With a sealed mast the proa will not turtle and is expected to self right. Meanwhile the pod stays high and dry. But this is something I definitely wouldn't want to test.
