Bottle Boat

[amsci99]

Hi,

Saw this first on an episode of a Discovery Channel Realtime series called 'Wind Driven' sometime ago. According to that episode, it was designed by famed Marblehead class designer Roger Stollery who calls it a Bottle Boat.

Was quite surprised that it costs over $225 as a kit when it's made from a soda bottle. Was wondering it any of the members here have tried building one?
