Priorities, priorities! A vessel without a shower that sails well is
preferable to a vessel with a shower that sails poorly but motors
well while making hot water.

Heh.

They were testing that thing on the Haringvliet, some water I pass
every day from/to work. The goal was to break the speed record. Too
bad one of the engines leaked oil, so they had to cancel the
attempt...

Cheers!

Well Bart 150 gallons an hour @70 knot for a 140+ft vessel is actually
very good.
A standard quad screw 140 foot crewboat burns 140 gallons an hour @
20kts

FUGLY !

My boat sails well, has a shower with hot pressure water.

Yeah the Super Structure looks to your a peein to me.
Yet I like the 1" thick windshield and take a look at the main engine
photo. I think that engine was developed for heavy lift helo's. I'd
like to get a boat load of rich snobbish yacht club lubbers brats on
board and take it out in the gulf in 12-15 foot seas. I could kill em
all bounching them off the overheads and bulkheads. The whole boats
interior would self destruct at 70 knots flying wave crest to wave
crest. That would be a BLAST!

Why do you think it brings out the worst in both motor and sail?

I believe it brings out the best of both.

Nothing wrong with a rock steady 8kt on any point of the compass. Most
times the main is just above idle and you can not hear. If the wind is
above 15 knots than I can make hull speed without main assist.

I know the alure of pure sail and the benifits of no prop drag. But
due to my current career and the high cost off communications I do not
have the luxary of unscheduled trips.

Sailing a Siedelmann after sailing a Coronado would be like
flying a Piper Cub after flying a P51 Mustang.

Sure thing.

What's wrong with a Piper Cub?
