The Single Family Seastead is one of the types of Seastead.


Arguments In Favor

Some arguments at Vince Seasteading Views.

  1. A single family seastead should take less capital to startup.
  2. These can be more stable than boats that many families travel around the world in.
  3. A SFS lets each family decide where they want to go, so dynamic geography works at a fine granularity.
  4. There is no need for new government structures at the start as each SFS can just get some country flag like any yacht.
  5. It is probably easier to tile together lighter weight SFS than large seasteads.
  6. More "incremental" than others and so has a better chance of working.

Arguments Against

  1. Something just incrementally better than a boat might not change things much.
  2. Designing a whole new type of structure adds risk to the venture.
  3. Without tiling together, it might be too isolated for most people.
