I read about this the other day, super cool story. What boggles my mind is how it never sank, 3.5 yrs of rain and swell.. a lot of time.

if you look at the picture it loos like it floated upside down. still crazy it didn't break apart more, ttop got mangled and part of the top cap is missing but hull and outboards are still intact.

Ahh, you're right. The article I read didn't have pictures and I didn't click your link at first. I remember watching a documentary of a team of windsurfers crossing the Atlantic.. they had chase boats of course, but they were seeing seas of 20+ft quite regularly. It's amazing.

I thought I read somewhere that scientists use containers that fall off of ships to track currents?

Brand that is the boat? Bonston Whaller?
