For a boat this small, almost any weather is heavy... What can we do to increase its chances of survival in a storm?
Avoid Bad Weather
If we can establish two way communication with the boat, we could change its course to get around troubles.
Storm Survival Mode
In a bad weather the boat could get into a survival mode, when it steers not towards the destination but to increase its chances of survival. Using data from accelerometer, gyroscope, GPS, and wind wane, the boat could compute a micro-model of the environment and choose the best survival strategy for the conditions.
Slow and Steady Wins The Race
The boat should be build neither for speed, nor for comfort. We don't need large sail area. The autopilot will not get sea sick. The boat must be well built though. Automatic reefing is not realistic here, but we could make the sail to de-power at strong wind by building in a wist.
Any other ideas?
