    That is a sleek looking ride! I'm usually not fan of the enormous boats like these because I feel like they look weird and proportions are somewhat lost but not on this one. Betsy has great lines! On a side note, I would remove the pulpit and would have put two big "fake" exhaust ports on her transom.

    You would think that after spending all that money they could come up with a better way to get up on the bridge.
    All kidding aside, that is one sexy lady!

    I'd bet that would cover the engines and a full tank of fuel

    Since I don't even dare to dream that big, I wouldn't even know where to begin. I would assume your in the ballpark and depending on how she's finished off, probably even more. Bottom line, I probably can't afford the tender he's going to strap to the bow.

    ENGINES??

    SHE REALLY LOOKS COOL!!

    HER BELLY HAS QUAD C18 CATS @ 1150 HP EACH LINKED TO THE ZF 4000 PODS!!
    JUST ON A THOUGHT-THE QUESTION IS THAT WHETHER THE PODS ARE WORTH THE PRICE & FUNCTIONALITY?? THE BEVELLED GEARS ARE SO NUMEROUS ETC FROM AN ENGINEERING POINT OF VIEW IN THE PODS.WOULDNT HAVE TWIN LETS SAY MTU'S 2600HP EACH OR 2400HP EACH ON SHAFTS LINKED TO ZF OR TWIN DISC JOYSTICK DONE THE SAME MANEUVERS ??THE OTHER THING THAT I NOTICED IS THE BOW THRUSTER-IS IT REALLY NEEDED WITH THE PODS?

    GOOD LUCK TO THE OWNER...NICE WORK!!
