Rick, I love your positive outlook.
It was a test that I conducted just to see how easy it is to get free stuff. Apparently not easy at all. Besides, this 34 will never get off the ground if I depend on freebies. Good stuff cost money.

OK, heres a progress report.
The deck is complete. The hull is layed up and the foam coring is on the gull sides. Windscreen mold will be gelcoated tomorrow, and the transom was put in and glassed over today.
Tomorrow the stringers will start going in also.
Damn! This thing is coming together fast!

Initially I will go with twins just to maximize miles per gallon. Don't forget my round the world "thingy".

If that doesn't happen or if I do it and get the boat back safely, then triples it is.

I understand that most Superboat owners(actually 99.9999%) are speed freaks, but this one time I will have to think about making it to my destination with plenty of fuel still on reserve

But how big can this 34 be? You guys are forgetting my fortune cookie dream: "We're just twigs in the vast ocean"

noli, how about triples, keep the center motor off and trimed out of the water ??? Just in case you lose a motor on your long haul your spare will be just sitting waiting !!!
