  Interestingly concrete yachts are a thing. Ferro-cement is the term, but it is just reinforced concrete. You can buy very large yachts for small amounts of money with yachts made this way in the 70s.<p>Insurance can be tricky for no really good reason

    Or melt the sand and form it into long strips, fibers, then glue the fibers together in some sort of glass-fiber-epoxy type material. Get the patent done quick because that sounds viable imho.

  Was this created by AI and not proofread or created by a human and not proofread? The paragraph relating to the Musgraves taking over a factory is repeated and it reads rather oddly.<p>Anyway, regardless of that nitpick, it was an interesting read.
