Oh, a power boat, no wonder I didn't recognize the name.
Just what we need on the Chessy, another clueless power
boater.


Better there than here! But it would be fun to take it
out once. Bay
Bridge to Norfolk in about 4 hours. It would only use
about $600 of fuel.


yes, but why?

I can make that trip in under 3 hours for under $20 on my
BMW.

But your BMW doesn't have four TV's.

One thing I noticed in the specs is that although there are two stoves
(one below, one with the cockpit BBQ) both are electric. That means
that to make a cup of coffee, you have to run the 9 kW genset.

No propane stove at all. Is the BBQ propane?

I believe the presumption is, Jeff, that the boat will seldom, if ever,
leave dock. Big engines, a majordomo genset, and all the bells and whistles
are primarily show stuff for lubbers making their way down the docks on
sunny Sunday afternoons.

Al Gore can make it in his bizjet in under 10 minutes, but at a "slightly"
higher cost.
