Default twin 225s or 250s?

Was wondering if I should go for the 250s for my new catamaran or just stick with the rated 225s. What do you guys think?



Help me out here. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif[/img]

Mark,

I would go with the 250's but MAKE SURE you get the 2-STROKERS - NOT 4's!!!!! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] And get AT LEAST a GROSS of them! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif[/img]

Does the "HSV" stand for High Speed Vehicle???

Yikes - what will the Navy think of next???

Looks like the Scout "air-assisted ride" to me??? [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif[/img]

Give us some INFO/SPECS (and maybe a profile shot?)!

Regards,
Bruce W

That boat (or it's sister ship) was in Little Creek last year. Saw it cruising up the bay one time as well. Very Cool. That picture does not look like it was taken around here however.....

Draco,

I expected a drier ride, but you know, it's okay.

I have to use one hell of a gaff to get my wahoo on board.

Trouty, you should recognize this vessel....

It's built in your country!

I heard they will run like 40 knots. Amazing. They use them for fairies in Australia. No, wait, they use Trouty for that! They use this boat as a ferry.. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif[/img]

Trouty, you know I'm just poking fun at you brother..

Don't send the Flash after me, I'll drink Fosters from now on, I promise!

Mark
