OMG! That gets my vote as the most amazing picture ever posted!

Lars, you should post this under its own thread in the General Discussion. Title it something like "Lady Lola Goes Deep Sea Diving".

Quite possibly the most disconcerting pic I've seen in recent memory.

what's the scoop on that pic?

The picture was posted as an answer to the question what happens when you hit a wave. If you never been on a long trip with a yacht, you might think it is the same as to see them in port, but I can assure that even the biggest yacht will experience similar sights.

I was also thinking of the latest B+V contract for the Philippe Starck design. She has a wave piercing shape which will without doubt make her look as a surfaced submarine in heavy seas. A picture on a similar design can be seen from Halmatic VT;

Any Idea of the fuel consumption at speed? With all powerplants running, what would be your guess?
I think I need a new Millenium 140 for the poker run circut

****, I love that pic! LOL There's just something inherantly wrong about that much luxury launching like that!
