    I was looking through one of the mags and saw the new Delta motoryacht "Triton". I really love some of its features like the tender launching system and the crows nest with an elevator. However, the heli-pad looks a little tight. I would want a little more room if i was in the right seat of that chopper. Carl, any chance of doing a write up on it??

    Carl, I'd like to see a YachtForums review on Triton too. I've always liked Delta. I especially like this new expedition. Maybe one day we'll move up.

    Monster, i was aboard D'Natalin at the Lauderdale show in October. Delta's quality is top notch. The other Delta i love is Centurion, but i have not seen it in a while.

    Hi Mike, Bill...

    I know Delta's been very busy with their new expansion. I'd really enjoy doing a review on Triton too, as I'm a real expedition fan. I'm hoping to visit Delta over the summer, including some other builders in the Pacific NW. In the meantime, I'll see if images are available and hopefully we can get a feature together.

    By the way Gary... congratulations on another outstanding example of your craftsmenship. It took 100's of people to build Triton. You built it single-handedly. ;)

    thanks Carl, looking forward to some pics of Triton. I just finished reading the WOW write-up. Nice job, I love that boat. The size and features are exactly what i would want. Cat power, walk-around deck, shallow draft and room for a nice size tender. Its Perfect!! I have spent some time on 106 Westships. They are very nice boats, but this Burger has them beat.

    Mike, Bill...

    I just got confirmation that a complete suite of images in on the way for Triton. We're doing to do a full length feature on it, so it might take a week or two before it's ready to upload. I'll keep you posted. :)

    Pictures of the retrieval system for tenders

    Hi,

    I've been interested in the delta's Triton for some time now, and I finally found (by coinsidence) a picture of the retrieval system for tenders. As the Triton review on yachtforums says, no picture is supplied showing the system.

    However, on the page of the producer, I found some pictures. Hurray!

    Hi Energizer and welcome aboard!

    Thank you for the link and images on Nautical Structure's tender system for Triton. I've added this to the story. :)
