I think it's cool what they are doing. Just because mankind has explored the world, doesn't mean we should all sit at home watching tv now.

It's interesting to me that they are so self contained. The solar/wind powered water maker, and the greenhouse for growing food are both remarkable. Making the thing out of recycled plastics is also cool. None of those things are new inventions, but combining them all into this boat is unusual and cool. It shows what some possibilities are and may lead others to come up with additional ideas. Plus, some people like to sail. It's fun. What's wrong with that?
