not to blow a hole in your bubble...because I do like the idea of being self sustaining - crisis or not...
but what makes you think the "shore" people are going to be amenable to you "stealing" their food....??? By what right do you even do that?
What keeps your boat from being "borrowed, used, etc" whilst you are ashore collecting "their stuff"...same for your women, perhaps left behind to stand watch or even beside you crabbing...
You are assuming that what ever happens allows clean water to rain, many scenarios do not.
There is a lot more to survival than what you are preparing to do....and I doubt any will bring out the best in mankind....read: Katrina
