Re: What is going on here?

Awsome boat with an inside helm station and a draft that goes from 2'5" to 7'. One of my dream boats.

Thanks for the real scoop on the boat. Appears unique and would love to hear from an owner.

Re: What is going on here?

I was aboard one at a recent Annapolis Boat Show.

I was underwhelmed with the layout and space below, as the retracting keel makes a big imposition in the saloon. Plus, they cost a LOT.

But the ability to change your draft so radically with little impact on sailing efficiency, compared to a folding keel, is pretty awesome, and I'd take one in a second.

Re: What is going on here?

We've been on them twice at the last 2 St Pete Boat Shows. We actually loved the lay out below decks. Price wise, at around $500,000, I think they compare favorably to similar quality boats of that size. Significant step up from a Hunterbenelina.

Re: What is going on here?

Maybe not a lot of space for its length but a lot for 22,000 lbs.
152 Hp? Maybe you can water ski behind it because otherwise that makes no sense to me.
