I saw this thing fly by yesterday and wow! It is wider than a C25 is long! I'm thinking she will make one hell of a fine ocean cruiser once they finish with her and I install a proper condo down there!

As copied from somewhere: "Speedboat is preparing to break the Newport to Bermuda record. She is a VO60 on Steroids. One of the crew members told me she was doing 25k with main alone. Her rig is a Southern Spars EC6 Deck Stepped rig for structural and anti-water leaking purposes. The canting keel is just under 20ft tall and the hull profile is sweet. There is more to come as I will be stalking her for the next few weeks until the Start on the afternoon of the 20th."
