It speaks for itself.

Go to the power section and look at the 118. A floating Darth Vader.

The sailboats will blow your mind.

Radical dude....

Lifelines? We don't need no stinking lifelines. (Safety follows form)

Yachting did a feature on it last year and mentions it every chance they get. It is the new reference standard.

They don't list prices, dealer locations, etc. Is this thing even trailerable? (*ducking now*) Back to my little boat on a little lake with little bills.

That 118 is obviously named for the F-118 Stealth Fighter... Looks like they just took the wings off and set it in the water.

Waterboy... They also don't say whether to get and extra-long shaft outboard or which bracket to put on the transom, either.

It does look like the stealth fighter ... but ... the stealth fighter is designated the F-117. Nice try Dave!

WOW!!! That's impressive.

The galley is bigger than the kitchen in a lot of apartments I've seen. With a 13' draft she'd have to be really careful in the Chesapeake Bay (and a lot of other places).

Imagine the look on the tow-boat driver's face if he gets this one.

I saw the price of the 2000 Carrera 80 footer = 3.5 Mill Euro
or at todays exchange rate $4,346,298.00 American.

Hold on, let me get my check book!

John,

No need to burn up all your BUs at one shot. That sucker would make a heck of a time-share.

Let's see...if we get all the ~7,000 C-25 & C-250 owners together...yeah, THAT'S the ticket! ONLY $621,000 per owner. NOOOO Problem, right?

Jeff,

Actually it is only $621 each if we have all 7000 contribute.

That works out to about 1 1/4 hour (including evenings, nights, weekends, bad weather, etc...) on the timeshare each per year!

John,

Good catch on the math error. Still, at $8.28/minute that's awfully steep. Back to the Cats.

BTW: would you care to share the source of your boat's name?

Sure,

My wife and I had dreamed about a boat for quite some time, and always would talk about what kind, when, and of course, a name.

Becuma is Celtic and means Goddess of the Magic Boat.
