Just saw this model yesterday at the boat ramp on hood canal it was stuck because the engine that powers the drive wheels overheats and must sit for 45 minutes approximately to cool off before it will start again by design. This boat is very impressive up close ! Unfortunately this man was having a bad day his friend with the boat trailer was stuck also on the boat ramp as he went a little to far down the ramp broke his rear 4x4 driveshaft and even with a tow truck was still stuck 45 minutes after the tow truck started trying to winch him out. All in all a bad day for these guys . The Boat finally cooled enough so the engine would then start and he drove the boat off the end of the ramp . With that 300hp Yamaha outboard the boat soon disappeared.
Pop the wheels into the water. 45min, how ridiculous! AND he has a SeaLegs, what the hell is he doing backing down a ramp. Story has some big holes mate. 🤥 Just sayin’ Michael 🇦🇺
G’day, nice video. Specs would have been handy - l,b,d and tanks, hull thickness and material (specific Al) Also an idea of the hydraulic motor noise. Launching at hours when you don’t want to wake everybody is important (to me). I assume that if the screen folds, the T-top does also?.. Be good to see it all folded up. Lastly, are there options to have the cockpit more ‘enclosed’ or protected. I’m not criticising you video, I really enjoyed it! Cheers.
