Way to go Russ, when I saw Sunrise for sale up North I thought Oh no. Now I see you are getting ready to see the world without having to watch sails. Awesome machine. Keith and Renee will be next, All the best Steve.
@@jacksbackable So were we , but when we really thought about it we think they propbaly would not have enjoyed it. They are more action orintated and fast food then landcape and nature. Anyway although we were very dissapointed at the start we ended up having the trip of a life time.
I saw the tour on Longreach's site and was totally impressed with your design and thought process. Its really a great design. Will you have a hybrid drive system?
I too, love the design, but I would opt for Beta Marine hybrid motors. Also add more solar panels over the deck outside the flybridge. I would be interested in knowing your final costing, as this is something we are looking forward to doing in about 3 years 😀
@@ewavideo7440 Agreed, they are doing a foiling model and also a hybrid engine option but its $900 k US extra which is a lot of fuel. We have looked and resurched very long and hard at this and dont believe there is a good reliable system out there yet. Our thought was to get out there efficiently as possible and when we think someone has somthing maybe change it out then. Our final costings ex factory are around $2.5 AU there may have been some price rise since we ordered

Hey Russ. Love the channel. Where do you have Sunrise for sale. Cheers Sean.
Sunrise sold in 1 hr. via a facebook post. really happy your enjoying the channel
Very interesting, just stumbled across this channel. You were cruising around the West Coast, with the Cruising Kiwis, yes?
And Obviously Zatara! 🙄😝🤣👏🐬⚓️🏖🌴☀️🇦🇺
@@jacksbackable Yes thats right, unfortuately they both pulled out before we hit the Kimberely coast. The plan had been to do it together for saftey.
@@CruisingSunrise ok, first comment was before I watched to the end obviously 🙄 I was surprised Zatara headed off before doing the Kimberly area.

No unfotunately, but we can add a later date if we think the technology gets better.
