They probably aren't allowed to put this in the water of any country that has watercraft rules. The reporter from CBS reads the form he had to sign, at 2:40 in this video: https://youtu.be/29co_Hksk6o https://youtu.be/29co_Hksk6o
It says something like "this experimental craft has not been certified by any regulatory body". They probably have to be in international waters to put it in water.
- Ichthypresbyter 3y agoIt's entirely legal to design and build your own boat and put it in the water pretty much anywhere in the world. If you want to carry paying passengers then things are different, but that's why they were officially crew. (Crew members who are paying to be there has a very long history. One of the last lines operating sailing ships, in the 1920s and 30s, made money from merchant marine cadets whose countries still required them to have a certain amount of experience as crew of a sailing vessel to get their ticket.)
