  • SV Seeker The Boat The Internet Built. Travis from iwonder TV went down to Tulsa Oklahoma to talk to Doug Jackson is building a 74 ft boat named SV Seeker in his front yard. Boat building is what doug does and the SV Seeker is our 74 foot steel origami hull, junk rigged, cargo, motorsailer. Once completed this boat will be a part time research/charter vessel and full time home on the water. People come from all over the world are helping Doug build the SV Seeker and thats why he says it's the boat the internet built. People from all walks a life come help him with projects on the boat and if Doug doesn't have the answer he can go online and ask his huge fan base for the answer. Boat building is and adventure that Doug and many others have enjoyed over the years and he really looks forward to the day the SV Seeker sets sail. Boat building

    Doug just finished his first offshore "sail" this morning. "sail" is in quotes because on a 325 mile journey with the wind blowing in exactly the direction he was headed from 8 to 20 knots he only sailed 5 miles of it, and then he never broke 3 knots.
    Whenever anyone tried to talk to doug about stability (which is a vital topic for sailing and not intuitive) doug would run them down, and tell them off for trying to infect his joy with problems they have only imagined. Turns out even a light breeze of 4-5 knots on a beam reach is enough to blow seeker to a 25 degree heel when she has all her sails up.
    If you're building a house and you make the foundation out of silly putty it doesn't really matter how nice you build it, and really if you get help and free resources to build it you are just wasting them building on a poor foundation. A por sailboat design is the same way.

    Just so you know I built Nuclear Submarines for General Dynamics in New London Ct. It was a common joke that we built the submarine 3 times, One the part didn't work as advertised 2 it broke somehow some way and thirdly the navy go hold of it and broke it a second time. This is after we had installed it all of those times. An trust me your boat isn't anything like a submarine. It is a thousand times more complicated. So rest assured you are doing well. Con grats you have a beautiful vessel and I love what you will be doing with it. Have agrat day RC

    That boat is a death trap, absolutely NO research organization would EVER put their people on a piece of crap like that. It's not insurable, and not seaworthy. They would never get a licensed Captain to run it. I've seen some of their build videos, hopefully Doug stays healthy enough to see it launched, they use no protective equipment when welding, painting, etc....
