And that's the whole point.  If you could make the vehicle a hundred feet long, this challenge would be expensive, but easy.  By making the boat tiny, you make the challenge affordable, but tough.</p><p>The race has two divisions, sail powered and unlimited, but it's hard to see what they had in mind for propulsion by having an unlimited division.  Possibly some seawater-replenished fuel cell.</p></div>
