Certainly a looker but not fun when it comes to launching ,docking and mooring . I can see why after a short time the owner may become dissolution ed with such a boat . I love looking at and watching these guys run , but even if I had the dough I'm not sure I would own a boat of that type. Just my two cents.

[QUOTE=Sean H]its been for sale since it was built, he will just do another one if it sells....
Why?
Heck, if he just wants to throw away money, he can throw it my way.

I think it was a big flop anyway.

Dont care what anyone says, I agree with Sean, it's an awesome boat that carried off a theme that runs like a fine watch and is pleasing to the eye. The subtle details in the paint are amazing, everytime I look at the bilge pics you can pic up another detail. Many people build boats, cars, motorcycles and they are often sold before being completed. Any talk of an indictment should NOT be put on here, this is about the boat. It by far is one of the most stunning boats I have ever seen.

For the record, SPEED RACER is one cool ride. I would love to see it in person.
