LOL!
I'm actually a lot bigger and more robust than the flimsy fiberglass trimarans in Waterworld and I do have nets (trampolines) at the front.

I'm far more likely to survive into a post-apocalyptic world.

Of course the premise of Waterworld is completely ridiculous. If all the ice on earth melted sea levels would only rise by 61m and there would still be plenty of dry land.

However living upon the sea to escape tyrannical governments which control the land is a concept I am exploring.

From my youth on an island in Alaska, I learned that solitude was vulnerability. I have lived off the land in the forests, and learned from that I am properly part of the human community, and should undertake my role to contribute to it's development and partake of my fellows' contributions.

That doesn't mean everyone must eschew a life at sea. I wish you all the best in your journeys.

Very interesting perspective. I don't intend living at sea to be a life of solitude. Family and friends are important and I am a big boat.

There is also a lovely community of fellow cruisers living at sea.

My father lived for many years on a sailboat in the Caribbean, and spoke fondly of that community.
