Sorry, but no. Much too clean, shiny, and sterile. Kelly
Very nice Joir! <we still need a thumbsup smilie> Kelly
I would say very plausible. Self-righting designs are rare, especially in the very large sizes. Kelly
Top pic shows best what a buyer would want to see. Middle pic is more dramatic, good for an advertising spot. Bottom pic is a little off...
Oops! So this competition is strictly a rendering exercise. Not a design contest. I misunderstood the goal, my bad. :o Kelly
The hull form looks very nice. But I do worry about the huge volume of the "aft cockpit" ("tender well"?). My concerns are that it could weaken...
That is my idea of a detailed rendering! How long did it take you to develop it to that last picture? Kelly Cook

I did click on the listing in the Archive and all it did was take me to the thread -...
Found it. But "activating" it did not produce any fireworks. Nor could I see that the M-140 video thread was treated any differently than the...
Interesting find talkingstone. I was able to download and install it on my Win2000 box. Just playing with the tutorial at this point. But the...
I would hazard a guess that the only way you're going to get that much internal volume for the length is with a multihull. Kelly
From these photos it's evident that the front window wall on the main deck has sharply radiused corners. With flatter center section. Which is...
