I caught that last night. Had a couple of leaky and shaky starts but the thing ended up seaworthy. Pretty cool.

I saw most of it. The rocking and rolling at the beginning would have made me nervous. I also got the feeling the professor types didn't know anything about boat building. Took the builders and sailer to fix the problems.
