Checklist…#1: It Floats?…CHECK!…..No, wait

Remember our buddy from the Notably Nutty department; Kristofer J. Harley? I’m not sure if it was a sea trial or his actual around-the-world mission, but apparently he was very near to departure when, shortly after launching, he discovered the rudder bolts were leaking. Not that much of it was left…but this doesn’t help his credibility. His response to a concerned on-looker was “a little goo will do”. He was (is) expecting to leave from a secret departure site because he’s concerned that the Coast Guard might try to stop him (I suspect he’s more concerned about having an unruly crowd on hand). I do wonder how effective those lifelines are going to be….Stay tuned and I’ll keep you posted!
