That thing doesn't look like it was designed to float. Especially not in a raging sea.
Quoting: SallyValentine I believe those huge legs provide the buoyancy, while storing some oil. Then cables go down to huge anchors that work to keep it in position. Whether it floats OK, unsecured in a Cat 5 hurricane, I have no idea about. Quoting: Justme C'est Moi you are correct, i used to work on a supply boat.
