I envisage a much smaller version, about 8M to 9M, plying the canals of Venice, and other such places, as a waterborne limosine, pulling up to a jetty of a high class hotel or casino, a gentleman and his lady existing for a night at the high roller table. Powered by a pair of the new Volvos with the tractor dualprops and joystick control. Hell, even an electric version, a pair of podded drives with fly by wire, and Lithium ion polymer battery pack, with a quietened generator for longer trips, silently moving the elite between their homes and places of business and entertainment on the canals, which have speed restrictions anyway. As such it would make a good water taxi for a megayacht as well.
