48-year-old Andrew Bedwell will eat the walls of his boat, just one meter long, when he tries to cross the Atlantic with the smallest boat ever made – called “The Big C”. The father of one, 11.5 feet long, has designed a cabin with enough space to enter. The meals will be in the form of protein bars in bags that Tracy’s wife has shaped to fit in any slit in the container, similar to a “big Henry Hoover” and a “wheel bucket”. “It’s like eating the boat, but you’ll want to keep the most important pieces,” Mr Bedwell, of Scarisbrick, Lancs, told The Telegraph. “It can even be shaped in the back of the seat, so that my seat is made of food. “We have to eat from the outside first to increase the stability of the boat – it will pick up from front left and then front right, back left and back right. “By the end of the passage I will have a little more space.”
