I saw this on Sailing Scuttlebutt. It looks much better planned than the aluminum thing from San Fransisco. What do you all think?

If they succeed in raising awareness about the thoughtless pollution of our source of life, most important transport routes and favorite playground, good on them. They convey the message in a way that, I think, makes people want to listen so good luck to them. First thing I thought when I saw the craft was that it looked like a sort of "Mad Max meets Thor Heyerdahl" contraption. Kon-Tiki made a safe journey it looks like they planned it carefully so odds are Junk will make it aswell. On the other hand I have a bone to pick with them, I thought I had the "floating around on a multi-hull piece of landfill" market cornered. They'll be hearing from my lawyers <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
