A friend and I have been having an ongoing debate for years. We were at a pub on a wharf, watching shipping container ships and cruise ships come into dock, and he posed the question. With no wind, no waves, perfect conditions, could he move the ship at all?

With zero wind, zero waves (or *only* waves that help), and with good legs: yes, you can.
It will be slow as all fuck, and it would take an incredible amount of effort to get that first movement down, but it would work.
