Hi all, I'm new to all this.
I'm writing because I went to a seminar last weekend held by the Sea-Steading Institute. My interest was in sailing, but a lot of their information involved surviving peak oil. So, here I am, in a panic, getting all the information I can.
I really have to recommend Jerome FitzGerald's book "Sea-Steading". I was aboard his boat last weekend and it's the real deal. It's achievable, and a number of people are living independent lives where they'll just laugh at us land based people fighting it out.
Anybody else ought there considering the oceans as an excape? |

I've considered this as one possible escape for awhile now.
PM me if you want to discuss it in further detail. |

| We're talking about it under "planning for the future" I'm new to the whole thing and dont really have much to offer yet. Do you have sailing experience? |

FitzGerald says a boat should cost between a dollar and two dollars a pound.
