This sounds quite silly, but I have a dream to organize a world open tournament, on a boat, somewhere warm, with good food and affordable entry.

So, The first obstacle that I am encountering is the absence of a boat. That being said, who has a boat that could fit ~300 people?

How about a themed cruise. We would be called an "affinity group." could have workshops, several tournaments. Perhaps destination could be Go related. I'd prefer a New Orleans, USA, departure :-)

Edit to add:

This seems perfect, (departs Hong Kong)

Just make sure that there is a pump for filling scuba tanks, and I'm in.

I always see advertisements in Go Weekly for Go Cruises. It would probably be a lot of fun.

If I ever get a massive boat you guys will be the first to know. Well, at least nearish the front of those to know.

We need stones with some friction!

Yes, we'll be sure not to put all the strong player boards on one side of the boat.

I think you have to worry about the weaker players too. If all of the "heavy" stones they play are on one side of the boat... ;-)

I totally forgot I had posted this. It seems that there was an Amsterdam boat tournament, though it was not nearly as big as the one I am planning. Though I still need a boat..
