    This boat looks very interesting: choice of std drives, Arneson's or Water Jet.

    I was told it would be coming with a joystick based control for docking that controled the bow and stern thrusters, as well as both engines. I'm really curious to learn more about that.

    Sorry to dig this one up from the deadthread bin, but i absolutely LOVE this boat!

    It is so beautiful, inside and out.

    Has anyone got any more pics of personal sightings?

    Are those vacuum actuated vents under the swim-platform? I'm assuming they are to draw hot air and/or gases out of the engine bay, based on the negative pressure zone created by water passing over them. Can anyone confirm this?

    Thats what my guess was too. Can't confirm it for sure, but it would make sense. And they have certainly added some style to the look of them!
