Health concerns are an interesting point to ponder but wouldn't environmental regulations prevent tye use of toxic sludge as landfill in the ocean?
This would be a perfect conveyance as long as the ocean was calm.....drive right over the water onto the beach. Plus I know for a fact you can rent them!

A sailboat would be a poor choice for several obvious reasons.

Draft
Visibility
Mooring/Beaching difficulties



Shhhhhhhh. I wanna see the fail video at some point on Youtube :lol:

Can you imagine watching her run across that? I've already picked out the perfect "Blue Lagoon" bikini for her if we ever work together again. 8-)

Could you imagine a bunch of us renting a boat and having a day or a few days there!?

It sucks about having to worry about what contaminants are in that mud. But given its location I would be concerned about what's in it. It seems like there's always preventing a location to be good.

That would be awesome.

I do miss the natural locations. Whether it's business or pleasure, predictability takes a lot of the excitement out of it.
