A-d-v-e-n-t-u-r-e suuure is a funny way to spell “self torture guaranteed to end in death”.
Is this a thing here? !remindme 6 months “He’s @#%^ing dead”
Deep. Vein. Thrombosis.
This seems suicidal
I’ve sailed the Atlantic many times. The swell can be huge. I was in a 144m long navy frigate and everyone was seasick when we had 14m high waves. Everything broke. We could only go straight into the direction of the swell, otherwise we would capsize.
Best of luck dude, I hope you have better weather. But you’re stupid AF.
People have rowed across it so I’m not surprised if he makes it but I’m also not surprised if he dies
Having faced Atlantic swell in a frigate, I would not want to do this.

That sounds incredibly boring and dangerous at the same time
“Raw dogging” transatlantic naval voyage

This adds a lot of detail: https://www.pbo.co.uk/boats/the-worlds-smallest-boat-how-andrew-bedwell-built-his-100cm-boat-to-sail-across-the-atlantic-101664 . I can’t help but wonder about the lavatory situation, which isn’t discussed.
On the open ocean you poop overboard. The US requires holding tanks within coastal waters, but most cruisers ignore it.
Anything to get away from ppl, I get it.

You don’t need more than a micro game boy advanced
Stolen idea…
Can’t even lay flat to sleep or rest. That would be a non-starter for me.
Right? Have you ever been on an 8-hour flight? Now imagine that for months, and add seasickness…
Exactly. Hell no.
This sounds like a medieval method of execution
Seems more ancient or classical to me. “You’re no longer allowed here, we’ll give you a small chance at survival, but you’re leaving”

Can I have his stuff?
