WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Has he got enough ponies on that stepped hull?? :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Looks great. Would be tricky to build in those steps but I have a feeling that this is not the first boat he has built. :highfive: :highfive: :highfive: :highfive:

That monster has "MILITARY USE" written all over it.

Looks like he ran short of rub rail on the starboard side. And yes its not the first boats they have built. Metal Sharks built a pile of Aids to navigation boats for the USCG. Nice looking boat.

Wow, looks awesome. I wonder how well the radar works being so far back though, it appears from the pictures the top would block it from seeing the horizon.

How much for something like that? 1200HP...where's the kicker? is there a pot to piss in? Now that is some hefty rubrail. LOVE IT!!! Capt PJ

Fuel Burn at full throttle?


100 GAL'S or more?

Military and or the Oil Company Exec's. are the only Lucky guys to be able to afford the gas bill.

I am going to guess 120-140 gall per hr at full throttle???

Give me a seat belt and helmet! I would be happy to test that theory....
