36 - very nice

I like the 36 cabin, very nice. Just a quick questions,




why




what is 3 feet going to save you if the cabin, cockpit, engines, drives etc are the same as the 39, whats 3' of fiberglass worth vs the 39

like the boat, just wonder what the reason is, big demand???

The Fastest Invisible Boat in the OSO Fleet
Storage, trailering and weight would all be considerations. The cabin stuff is a nice trade in weight for 3 ft of glass. Great speed with mild(700) package.

Hopefully it is an improvement in design, more of a next gen boat and sized to compete against its closes competition, the 36 skater. the 38 nortech LOA is over 38' vs the 39 MIT LOA of 38.10 so they are still close size wise

The boat is a true prototype. Air vents are being added as we speak. They will be similar to the vents on the Ferrari boat instead of MTI's traditional side vents.
