Re: Strange watercraft
Something stange.
The command center on top lowers to allow one to come and go sepearate from the vessel, while the boat itself can run un-maned.
The thing is 100' long X 50' wide.
They are calling it the "wave-adaptive modular vessel class WAM-V™".
It has a suspension system that makes for a stable platform in rough seas like a sea sate 6 condition.
I belive the performance goal was not to high, 35 knots or so with twin 450 cumins engines. I think the displacement target was like 20k lbs. Will know more next week.
Press day is next Thursday in SF.
