In light of some of the posts of late which have been somewhat less than stellar I thought it time to look at pretty boats again.

Pause the video at 2:15 as the boat hangs in the slings and drool over her lines, a missile for sure.
No doubt this cost many millions of dollars to bring to fruition and I for one am happy that there are people in the world that can afford to keep these living works of nautical art alive.
Love your contributions
Beautiful. That yacht fairly much answers the question "Why build a yacht in aluminium??"
Strength for weight it has to be the best.
Thanks Loose!
J-boats have to be one of the most beautiful creations man has ever made.
You're right about it hanging in the slings, it looks more like a Blackbird than a yacht.

Check out the NZ registered 68 ft yacht 'Martinique' ( a Warwick design) for an awesome aluminium hulled beauty, even at rest it looks to be doing 15 kts. That small nation puts Australia to shame with its ability to make aluminium 'super-yachts'...see 'Alloy Yachts' website for some great yacht porn.
