ttt keeping the history threads utd

T2x what do you think of Frisini's new cat? Interesting cockpit yes?

It's certainly big enough...I have mixed emotions about packing large numbers of "civilians" into 150 mph catamarans. Certainly the speed is just a number to them and feels much the same at anything above 90 or 100.... but the risk of accident and injury increases dramatically as the speeds go up. I'm a big Skater fan and Peter has made some huge cockpits as well, which also give me pause.

What do you think of Gary Colledgewood's canopy on his new 44? Would it be safe enough for those speeds?

Of course not.....

Clicked on the link for the safety guidelines and I didn't even have to go past the first page to tell you that the guidelines are old and inadequate. Folks it is 2013 not 1995. time revisit all those guidelines and make amendments. Boats are traveling much faster than they did in 1995. Just saying!!!!

Man, just read through this thread and the V-Hull thread. Love this history lesson!! T2x, please keep educating us! I'm fascinated by the history of performance boats and all of this info. has captured me! I'd love to see all of this in a book or 2. Thanks for the threads and keep it coming!

I agree...he should write a book!!!

when i was a newbie i asked t2x if there were any books I could read on the history of offshore powerbaots...little did I know I was talking to one of the best sources of information lol!!!!

Look T2X it's a 'SWITZER WING' looking car from 1967. I could hardly believe what I was seeing just now, it definitely looks similar ???? Thank you for all the Great reading throughout the years.. Cheers to you and Darren, Bill Jolley
