Frugal adventurers

They start across the US on April 10th. Not sure I'd pick a Fiat as a round-the-world vehicle.

I know some cheap powerboaters to, and I know some sailers who spend the GDP of a third world country racing every year.

I prefer a ’51 Grumman.
(Not to be confused with a 51’ Grumman.) Hardly "frugal". But surprisingly less than what many boaters put into their adventures.... racing... and/or oceanic occupations.

Yeah but boating is more fun...flying is faster though.
Of course the best of both worlds would be having a choper on the back of your boat.

Actually – The best of both worlds is having a Grumman that flies, with two Sea-Doos mounted under the wings.
(Nope - Not ours. Now, a friends out in AZ.)

FIAT's stink. My dad had one and that's he perfected the "wrench toss" for the Garage Olympics.

And he was a mechanic, no less! We non-mechanically inclined don't have a prayer with one of those.
