Squeeze Box Micro Cruiser Sailboat

Article By Jeff Gilbert

Jeff Gilbert designed this boat as a tender and rescue escape craft. The idea is that it is a very small cabin boat that you can sleep inside of and it will keep you protected from storms and stuff, the same as the way a beach ball can float across an ocean without sinking, as long as the cabin is kept shut.

There have been a number of small sailboats that have crossed huge oceans so the concept is a proven one.

The pictures to the right are the only one that I know of that has been built, and it was only partially finished before the builder moved on to build a different boat, and this one was not completed.
