possible boat to the world finals

Here is a picture of one of the boats with trailer. It is a fifth wheel, weighing in at 25,000 lbs. The trailer is built in Australia. Maritimo builds their own race boats. Here is their website.

They are trying to sell sportfish looking boats that double as cruisers here in FL. They have a 48 and a 60. They look like sportfishes but have no rod holders and are outfitted as cruisers. Kind of an odd idea......

Tencara , a Michael Peters design along with Platinum and i have always love the sound of a V 12 Lambo .

There Class 1 boats run Mercury motors, not Lambos....

Tencara with the Jaguar tunnel from what I heard.

and their new boats aren't MP or Tencaras either....

their old boats they run in Australia are the old tencara/v-12 combos where there is nobody to race against. In Class 1 they run their own hulls with modified/restricted Merc 850's.

any truth to them coming to KW?

Class 1 has races in italy in oct, abu dhabi in nov and dubai in dec, so I think squeezing in KW is unlikely for the new boats. Would they ship the old style boats from the other side of the planet? If so, they better be on a ship now probably. I would guess no, but stranger things have happened in offshore.

I received a call the other day and they are testing a boat back in australia this week and if it runs ok they will ship it to long beach where I will pick it up and bring it to the world finals

If it comes I will have to disconnect a semi car trailer from a KW tractor to tow it down there since they use a tilt trailer that is set up for a full size tractor with air brakes.
