Development: first sketch with flaring hulls

Beginning 2006 I changed the hull shape to the final design, where the hulls are flaring above the water line. This ensures a fast boat with plenty of living space. The form stability of this design is extreme. The engines are planned now one 30HP YANMAR with fixed shaft in
