Hope they get their money back from the kook family
I don’t mind if the “thrill seeker record setter types” provide proof of a rescue contigency fund. That would show that, if they do get into trouble, they have no intent on being a financial burden to any country or company that is called upon to rescue them.
And I am not a maritime lawyer, although I did stay in a Holday Inn Express a few times, so if I’m wrong, then I will accept the lashing.
