Default Philippines, Has anyone ever tryed making a boat travel business to the USA?

I often run into filipinas in chat wishing to marry American men, although I am in my own American rooms, looking for American females.
I do care, and I understand why they do it.

I been researching, not that I want to marry a filipina, but because I am making a think tank. I just care about people in general.

Has anyone ever thought of making their own boat traveling business to the USA for legal Visa, passport holders in the Philippines?
Making it cheaper, and more affordable for some to actually make it to the USA.

Sailors, or people that want to prove their experimental boat can travel the world powered off corn flakes, lol that travel the world do it all the time, and whomever thought about this would make allot of money in the Philippines.
Schnurrbart answer was not what I asked, I do not care about what people are doing to snag an husband but because of the reason of people to COME here to the USA, could it be made easier.

I post this question in the context that there is a problem, and a solution to everything.
I also have allot of Filipino friends, and I prefer Filipino answers.
I know good, and well what people want in a chat conversation, as soon as they start asking for something.
The point to my question is to solve a problem.

Just be careful with those filipinas who's love are 4M

4M stand for

M-Matanda (old man)
M-Mayaman (wealthy)
madaling mamatay (Almost dying)

They only after for you money!

I know this because i'm a filipino. and i know some of them.

I have a neighbor married to Dutch man. The dutch give everything to the lady including her family livelihood. She got pregnant but she aborted the child. So, the dutch left after everything he gave to the lady. poor dutch! very unfortunate for him

Considering the time and distance required to travel by boat from the Philippines to the West Coast, and the weather and sea hazards involved in such a trip, I highly doubt that the PhP savings involved would be worth it even to the poorest Philippine immigrant to the USA. In many cases, either family/friends or employers help pay for that first airplane ticket to the US.

On another point: cost is not the issue that blocks Filipinos from getting to the US. It's getting a visa that's difficult if not downright impossible. So, unless you could provide a cheaper travel alternative that is time-comparable to flying, you wouldn't get a flood of Filipinos taking up your offer to come to the US. Although you could get a lot of Balikbayans traveling home to the Philippines more often if they knew of a way to get home as fast as flying but cheaper.

That wouldn't work. It would take weeks to go back and forth. Most people want to get where they are going faster than that.

A month on any boat would cost more than 12 hours on an airplane. Fly her to the US first class with all that boat money you've got lying around, Chuck.
