3/3/2025 Update - the weather finally cooperated in Hamptons, NY and Paul was able to launch the boat for the first time. He kept her close to the marina but did check out everything. Fortunately, everything worked as designed. We still need to discuss everything in detail but just happy to hear this news. More to follow soon.

Paul was able to take the boat for its second sea trial this weekend and reported 5 knots at 1,100RPM which is what we calculated. A few more weeks of final detailing then we call for the transport truck.

Someone asked about power and its a 48V system. Update this week includes Paul completed all sea trials and address the engine compartment temperature that he felt was a little warm. He made some adjustments to the airflow and last test confirmed readings are good. He is working on the final coat of varnish this week and pick up is being planned for mid-April. I got lucky and found a car carrying company that will transport the boat inside a large 18-wheeler along with custom cars. Getting closer to seeing the boat.

Update: this week the transportation company picked up the boat at Paul's location in East Hampton, NY and took the boat to their hub closer to NY City but still on Long Island. Current estimated start of delivery is early next week. With a little luck we will see the boat less than two weeks.

How are you cradling the boat this time? A trailer again, or something else?
 
She turned out beautifully with beautiful lines, a mega yacht in pocket size!

The boat is on its trailer with extra straps and bow protection. There is not much more we can do and hope the transport company takes care of the boat. Unlike the sailboat carrier who used a covered trailer behind a pickup this time we found a professional car carrier company with large 18 wheel transports willing to move the boat. Hopefully things turn out better this time around.
