I remember Al Copeland Sr being quoted in a magazine article as saying : out on the water it is merely a battle of wallets ,
if it takes more money to win , so be it ...

totally off topic but why do so many of these projects get a wild paint job prior to proving anything ? If you look at NASCAR the teams test and test and then paint the car for the first race. Seems like a bunch of money wasted on bling.

Extremely sad to say the least to see this, I still can't believe it. This boat needs someone with the means to complete this boat and own the dream boat of Legendary Offshore Powerboater and Racer Al Copeland Sr., someone like Barry Zekelman of Man of Steel fame. Whoever gets it is going to have a one of a kind boat, that I have ever seen.

He whom has a large wallet could battle Qatar with this beast. Am I wrong?
