ArkPad making impressive progress

Unlike so many other Seasteading projects throughout the years that have vision but never get around to doing actual building, ArkPad, based in the Philippines, is publishing videos constantly of their many workers putting together a platform that they claim is built to 'Last 100 years.'

Today's video was them taking a completed Spar out of it's cast:

They've recently showed us a few other systems being constructed, including framework and cement work for the platform:

Full of CGI models, the following video reveals a lot about their production plans, centering around a modular commercial product model called the ArkPad-C. (C for Coastal waters, on which they expect both homes and hotels to be built.)

While new & as yet unproven, it is very encouraging to see a modular system being worked on. If these things prove sturdy and don't cost more than a small family home, we could indeed using a bunch of these ArkPad platforms together one day to link together to form the first community at sea.
