Probably made of unobtanium. I almost bought a Velocity with twin montys but opted for one with 260s'. It was quite a handful for a newb with no experience to performance boating.

We are sure yes, but please note it is about to heave itself on to the rocks in shame. This is the equivelant of Hari Kari for boats.

What's the advantage of building them out of wood?

I'm associated with this builder who with a little convincing can build your SOB cat designs.

I have a builder with 30 outboard molds with full composite schedule and he needs no convincing. I just need mo money. He was ready to build me one 10 yrs. ago. I just need mo money. I never stated I wanted a single true tunnel. I have always owned and liked twins......................
