Secret Seastead Ends in Death
Samuele Landi lived in international waters for over a year. A storm ended in three deaths. What does this mean for seasteading?

Engineering report released: “Parametric Analysis of Candidate Configurations for Early Seastead Platforms…”
For the past half-year or so, The Seasteading Institute has been toiling away on an engineering study that’s aimed at identifying the most promising configurations for early seastead communities. We’ve looked at three different hull configurations (ship, barge and semi-submersible) in a range of sizes to accommodate as few as 100 to as many as 5,000 seasteaders.
Creating Mobile Offshore Bases Using Barges
Some projects for establishing ocean communities are investigated and then given up for several reasons. One of them is the Mobile Offshore Base (M.O.B.) concept by U.S. Navy. It was considered technically possible, but too expensive. Nevertheless, working on the idea, we have developed a proposal for a seastead based on several barges moored between them.
