Intro
This page lists quantative design requirements for the baystead.
Draft
The purpose of baysteading is to start near existing economies and social networks. We assume that baystead will operate in the SF bay (although other suggestions are welcome!). Anchoring at arbitrary places in the SF bay is forbidden, so baystead will have to be docked. The deepest waters at the docks seem to be about 20 meters Hence, we will asumme a maximum draft of 20m. This information has not been checked with regard to potential legal restrictions, further limiting this number; such a check is most welcome.
Accomodation
The target capacity for baystead is 50 people. Obviously, multiple smaller seasteads would attain the same goal, if we were capable of constructing them.
The aim is to provide only residential space, not a mini-city. These calculations are aimed at making a comparison with costs of living. If we use 50m2 residential space per person as a goal, this would translate into 2500m2.
Cost
The price per unit area should be minimized. We aim for something below 1000$/sqft, or 10k/m2. See: Affordable. With the given area, that would translate to a budget between 2.5M and 25M usd.
