Hmm, not really my thing. With that power it'll be a dog. Each to their own I guess.

All that being said, I hope they enjoy it.

If they altered the beam with one foot, could you really call it a 52SL? I mean, that'll change the boat so much, that the original caracteristics aren't really there, and it won't be no Super Leggera, that's for sure.

All that being said, I hope they enjoy it.
That cockpit width could have been gained through liner modifications as opposed to the beam of the hull? That is how I read it.

Mike (Fiore) didn't elaborate and I didn't think to ask (I should have), but that would be my guess as well ... six inches on each side.

And yeah, as A.O. said, "to each his own." In today's economic climate, I'm just please to report on any new high-performance boat being built.

Why Not?

A custom performance boat that the entire family can enjoy, grand children, children and grand parents alike will be enjoying boating together, it doesn't get much better then that.

The cockpit was widened not the beam of the boat. It should run fairly well with the diesels.
