    Disco thanks for the comments!

    Keith, I tried to get as many pics as possible for you......

    The Azimut 86S "Gorgeous Gal"

    I'm a huge fan of the Nisi 2400 and the interior designer is an amazing woman. PM me for her details if anyone is interested. Unfortunately the 2400GT missed the deadline for the show by 3 days (Thanks Sandy). She is slated to debut at Miami. These are super impressive in the fact that they are RINA classified and you can pick and choose propulsion systems and engines. This one has the Cummins 3xQSC 600's.

    She looked pretty lonely every time I walked by. Nice woodwork though.......

    I love the Viking Blue hull, tried to get as much of her as possible without a Wide Angle Lens.

    This is all I could see of "Harbour Island" from inside the show.

    I love the grey hull of "Amarula Sun". The 80' Hatteras M/Y "Amarula Sun" was not too far, and I see that there is a 130' Westport of the same name floating around Ft. Lauderdale now.

    This last one was taken from the FB of the 48FB Hinckely FB "Courtship"......all I can say is, absolutely stunning boat!!!!! I hope things are going well for Hinckley after the storm and the recent news posted on YF.

    Sea Bowld always grabs my attention!!!

    Pretty tight fit for the array of sizes displayed for the show.

    It always amazes me that a straight 6 can punch out over 1000HP. The first boat I ran as a Captain had 3412E's in it and they were rated at 1000HP.

    I am in love with the Horizon 88EP. Hope to get to run one someday, love the lines!!!!

    "Anjilis" by Trinity.

    Always enjoy the CAT display.

    Lots of lines still holding "007" from Sandy.

    I agree, the only thing better than your great shots of the NISI 2400GT is a HD video of her underway, at speed, in seas, slicing through the waves and froth!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-QHcCGDMbM&list=FLX6AUSuS4k8p-Gm6s7l9sUg&index=33&feature=plpp_video Sorry for not being able to resist the urge to post a youtube vid.

    That is one stubborn female.

    Apparently, she would rather sit alone; than take off her footwear and join the others, inside.
