Freedom Ship may be a few years away, if it materializes at all
(http://www.freedomship.com/), however there is another, albeit smaller,
ship along the same vein that is essentially a floating condo community
for the filthy rich that has already been built and is already sailing.
It's called The World of ResidenSea (http://www.residensea.com/), and
there was a show on the Travel Channel recently featuring this vessel.

A great concept. Reminds me of Freedom Ship, something I saw on
Discovery
Channel, an autonomous vessel large enough to have it's own airport:

These microstates, much like many Caribbean island states, will be
sorely
limited in their economic capacity.
