i guess thats thats one way of checking the Blue water capability of your boat without taking the risks yourself.

And exactly how does a robot boat keep watch, obey the collision regulations and avoid being a menace to other craft?

I'd like to see the son of a glitch pull up a snagged anchor. Or ogle a binarykini. Or answer a bunch of questions during a Coastie boarding.

And yet, I think it would be a great idea... punch a few buttons and then fly down and meet your boat as it smartly pulls into a slip in St. Gigawhat. With the rum intact.
