    Crossing the Atlantic in a Flats Boat

    saw this on that other website

    These guys are pretty insane, running 8400 miles in a flats boat across the Atlantic from Tampa to Frankfurt, Germany. Only gulf coast guys are crazy enough to do something like this.

      Yes, such a trip would be especially difficult since Frankfurt is several hundred miles inland from both the Atlantic and North Sea coast. I wonder if they knew that before they started out?

          Man that thing would beat you up crossing the bay, let alone the freaking Atlantic. I sure hope they put in a Foot Cush,lol.

                  Good one Monte!


                  Guys, I didn't want to say anything, but I saw this last year. Same guys. They made it to Bermuda and then nothing. So it's been tried.
