So one of my dreams as a mermaid is to swim across the ocean in tail, possible from Miami, Florida to the UK ( if anyone has a suggestion as to where to make landfall in the UK I'd love to hear it). I would have a boat follow me for food, water, and rest as well as safety and to film proof. I would also want to have the boat be solar and wind powered. I want to do this to show that the ocean is not as dangerous as people think and that if you respect it and took safety precautions, you would be fine.

I plan to make my tail blend with the ocean the way a whales does. Dark on top and light on the bottom. I will also be getting my scuba certification after this summer so I can take a small tank under with me and really experience the ocean.

Obviously I would need to do long distance training before embarking on this journey. I'm looking to do it within the next 5 years. Does anyone have any suggestions or thoughts on this? I would love all the advice I could get.
