ex TL systems 63 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 That is one efficient cruising machine, would still prefer a similiarly fast cruising cat though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

wheels 543 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Love the speed. That's about it though. Fine if you are more into racing. Too darn sterile inside for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon 360 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Love the speed. That's about it though. Fine if you are more into racing. Too darn sterile inside for me. Im with you Wheels For that sort of money you can get a lot of cruising boat, bit of a contradiction in terms a 'fast cruiser' So people like being there and others like getting there I guess Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 For that sort of money you can get a lot of cruising boat, Yeah and still be a fast one too. Fast, comfortable and nice looking. The more I think about this Tri, the more I am thinking, Why would you??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarkMT 68 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Nice looking boat and nice video, though I would find it more informative if some of it was shot in say 35 kt rather than 8. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Clipper 343 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 What's the self righting index on this? Useful comment. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
erice 732 Posted September 24, 2016 Author Share Posted September 24, 2016 Well I wouldn't say no,be interested to see it in a 25knt ne bashing out to the barrier. presumably not a million miles from this 60' tri Quote Link to post Share on other sites
harrytom 642 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 I felt sea sick just watching,totally different motion,end of day your there fast! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Clipper 343 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 If i had to choosr a boat to bash out to the barrier in 25 knots, i cant honestly think of a better boat than a modern 60' tri. Even if uncomfortable, at least you get there by lunchtime.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Battleship 100 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 presumably not a million miles from this 60' tri That Tri is still around it's now called Vodafone, one of my favorite clips by the way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
erice 732 Posted September 24, 2016 Author Share Posted September 24, 2016 That Tri is still around it's now called Vodafone, one of my favorite clips by the way. think i heard that that video helped Simon make up his mind to buy her but i think she's left the country on a 1 way trip... which is why it'll be extra nice to see the rapido here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Battleship 100 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Yeah I like the Rapido apart from the helm position, would work ok in Thailand but I would want to move/change it for our conditions. As for the big vodaboat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
