I mean you say you are out to create a "pleasure" boat, but the fact you install turbines, their is no way it is a pleasure boat. Pleasure ususally mean comfortable and easy to use (no or low hassle).
Hell I think if anything turbines would be less hassle than conventional power! A little more expensive but if your going to spend that kind of $$$$$$$ whats a little more for some resilliant power. Not to mention they make you go real fast.
In my world I call that Pleasure!

I explained my statement in the next few lines, in my sole opinion a turbine boat is not a "pleasure" boat. My family owns two Bell Jet ranger Hellicopters with turbines, they are loud, consume specialized fuel. Their is nothing pleasure about it other than landing on the top of the boat house. But hey it's all good, you are free to disagree. My point was I feel a better marketing strategy would be
"Extreme Performance in Style and Comfort"

Also turbine marine said they have the exhaust noise down as well.

umm turbines in helicopters are different than turbines in the boat. Well the same without all the FAA rules.. Someone will correct me if i am wrong..but most turbines in boats run on diesel. diesel is at most places now.
Also turbine marine said they have the exhaust noise down as well.

Isnt Jet A just a highly refined kerosene anyway?
