Boat Information

1. The Drive
You can either have a conventional arrangement or a new revolutionary,
surface piercing operation without the mechanical contraptions of other
drives. The props are in tunnels underneath the boat, straight shafts
and an air tunnel in the middle. The draft is about 4' and does not
give a rooster tail. Speed is about 10% higher than standard drives and offers
better fuel economy.
2. The Boat
The boats are all custom built out of cold molded composite which is stronger, but lighter than a comparable fiber glass construction and has a traditional rib cage. You can change layouts to suit your needs and be involved in the design and outfitting. The boats are built by Vicem and the yard is in Tuzla, Turkey (just south of Istanbul on the Asian side) and easy to visit.
