There will be people rushing out to buy them. There appears to be a
major arms race going on with the big multi engine go fast crowd. I
like the fact that they are a lot quieter than the go fast boats of 20
years ago.

I'm sure you are right that they'll sell, even at $75,000 a pop. I'll
bet the fuel burn is...interesting.

The people who buy them don't worry about fuel burn.


Probably better the the QE II. That ship gets 6 inches per gallon I read..
These motors seem to drink about 50 GPH WOT (6300-6400) and more like
20 at a 4000-4500 cruise.

The boats they talk about usually have 600-800 gallon tanks so that
gives them a few hundred mile range and a $2000+ fill up.

How bad do you want to get there?

Foolishness!
The wind is still free...at least for the time being.
