Yes, there is a way to enjoy the life and to save it when mother Nature is not stable! Our houses and buildings having no basement provide superior safety during earthquakes, waterflow, hurricanes, and other kinds of natural cataclysms. They are both suited for staying on ground and for unlimited floating on water. You are welcome to send us your ideas and materials to develop the project making the life of a human being safe and comfortable for generations. All constructive critics and ideas are welcomed here. Sponsors and investors please feel free to announce about yourself to make up an alliance turning this project to reality!
comment in seasteading: ....the submerged living space bubble emerged as a concept (see earlier discussion here ) when it became clear that waves in open ocean can build up to almost arbitrary height and it happens about 5 times a year that a 20m wave can come out of nothing in a 4 m wave ambient. (Draupner New Year wave video )
(The Draupner wave, a single giant wave measured on New Year's Day 1995, finally confirmed the existence of freak waves, which had previously been considered near-mythical. - see more here)
This brings up the need that ANY structure built for survival at sea that does have less than 15 m freeboard must be designed to be overwashed and submerged sometimes. So logic leads necessaryly to two development axes, enormous structures with more than 15m freeboard that can take draupner waves, or structures similar to a survival pod that can be submerged.
Robin Shipyard in Singapore, towed 10,000 miles across the Pacific Ocean to Baja, California and outfitted for use as a floating platform to support a phosphate processing plant.
While a ship needs to be built to fit into a existing harbor and load terminal infrastructure, a open ocean capeable living space can be built to be semi, part, or completly submerged what takes all wave hazards out of the picture.
There is a good reason why mother nature never developed a open ocean capeable surface animal or plant - the surface is a biological desert it is too violent to allow bio settlement. Oceanic animals live below the surface or fly above it.
When colonizing the ocean we should think in doing it in a similar way.
This thing was intended as a boat and abandoned - beside the look - the shell is intact after decades of cero maintenance and the shell can stand on land or stay afloat. Ideal for flood prone area housing.
Your own survival pod! Escape pod hotel in a city centre dock location. Moored in The Hague, your room is a bright orange survival pod which once saw service on an oil rig platform. Originally built in 1972 they are 4.25 metres in diameter and unaltered apart from the addition of a lock on the outside and an ‘emergency' chemical toilet inside. While not everyone's luxury choice, each pod provides cosy protection from the elements for up to three occupants.
Disaster proof house! This concept sounds breath taking especially, when we are facing hurricanes and tsunamis like never before. Being a Brentwood Concrete Contractor, I would like be a part of this project if few others are interested.

I’ve read some good stuff here. Definitely worth bookmarking for revisiting. I surprise how much effort you put to create such a great informative website. Hiace for rent in Islamabad
