We are working on a seastead design that will have a 40 by 16 foot living area above the water. There will be 4 foot wide columns that are about 20 feet long going out from from the 4 corners of living area and down into the water at 45 degrees, which half of each column under water. The bottoms of the floats will make a rectangle about 44 feet wide and 68 long. From the bottom of each column there will be 2 cables going to the adjacent corners to hold it in place. There will also be a cable making a rectangle betwen the bottoms of all the floats so we have some redundancy in case one cable breaks. The seastead is about 30,000 lbs I think but this is NOT a normal boat hull shape, it is more like a tiny oil platform as far as drag. We expect to use 2.5 meter diameter propelers on two submersible mixers and solar power to move at around 1 MPH plus any help from using eddies. It will all be made out of duplex stainless steel. The floats will be 1/4 inch thick. Lets assume the owner does a selective cleaning of barnicals every month on his own. Please discuss lifecycle cost of ownership issues. Lets say we sell this for $500,000. What sort of ongoing costs would customers have and how long should it last, etc. For this just ignore insurance and depreciation/replacement of the whole structure.
