Twin diesels makes the boat slower. The MTU 16V-4000 makes 3650hp, so taking one away would also take away maybe 15 knots. The turbine is for...
Neither address for Humphreys is working. :confused: I like the boat, clean uncluttered lines. I might put a turbine between the diesels though.
Too bad you can't make the FTL show, but the Miami show is next Feb. and also has yachts. This is a yacht I would look at very closely if I'm ever...
I like this idea. Relatively inexpensive and VERY effective. Well-placed water cannons can completely disable most vessels pirates use.
My boat is red too but a lot sexier than that one. I have no prob filling it up with bikinis! :D :D Carl's been after me for pics I need to do that.
I would not be caught DEAD in that boat. :rolleyes:
We either have to convert our piston engines to a fuel that is in good supply, or invent a new kind of motive power. And we need a government...
Cockpit is small for a 34' boat. Needs to be widened out over the sponsons. I've met Harry Schoell. His single step hull design planes off very...
Temperatures in the Gulf are now at 90*. Perfect for creating killer hurricanes like Ivan, Katrina, etc.
One's tickin and the other's tackin. :D
It is amazing that a 34' boat weighing almost 16,500 pounds with just 1250hp could run over 70mph!! :eek:
You have to admire a man who owns that many awesome yachts. I can't wait for Platinum to put to sea. :)
I know a guy in California with 600hp in his batboat. Could he be your brother? PM me if his initials are TW.
Gorgeous "tender" Lars!! :eek: :eek: :D
This will be the tender on my Palmer Johnson 150 Sport Yacht. :D :D ONE of them anyways. :D
Did you see any pitching motions from the SWATH vessel? I didn't. And it was obvious the SWATH was keeping its speed down to stay with the other ship.
Very nice drawing, awesome pic of your house and that old boat. Obviously, both boat and house have been well taken care of. :)
LOL :D :D
Thanks for the link Lars. :) The Science channel program also featured vids and the seas were 18-20ft. They showed a glass of water on the SWATH...
Just watched a Science Channel program on this multihull design. It featured all kinds of vessels from science research ships and huge charter...
