Project Bob claims
> Through the magic of Starlink and Twitter, we’re going to send a livestreaming drone boat around the world. Launching from Los Angeles, this 14ft boat will travel over 25,000 miles. To qualify as a true circumnavigation, we must hit the antipode (opposite side of the globe) in the Indian Ocean. Our path will drive under the tip of Africa and South America, skirting Australia, and ultimately returning to California approximately 250 days later.
how far will Bob actually travel? Resolves based on the data uploaded/shared via https://www.projectbob.xyz/ or linked websites.
Update 2025-09-09 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): - Only the circumnavigation voyage counts; the current/maiden test voyage does not.
If the circumnavigation takes longer than a year, it still counts in full toward the final mileage.

Is the market for the maiden voyage, or all trips before the end of the year?
@CraigDemel This voyage doesn't count and if the circumnavigation takes longer than a year I will still count it.
