Skater Super Sport Catamaran powerboat

Old Saybrook, CT USA

They were just about to drive off and I did not have time to adjust for highlights. I think this is 40 feet long. I don't know how much they cost new, but have seen advertisements for used ones well over $500,000. The current 40 foot model can be had with with twin 1300 H.P. engines and weighs 4750 pounds. It has a top speed of 160-170 MPH.

Olympus OM-D E-M5 ,OLYMPUS M.ZUIKO ED 9-18mm F4.0-5.6, Best at original size
1/100s f/10.0 at 18.0mm iso1600 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Beautiful boat, however I have no desire to go 160 on the water. I'd rather be fishing.
Nice catch here!

Highlights look fine to me. This is a fantastic capture especially considering how fast you had to shoot it. Great color and very nice boat. V.

I guess it was not meant for fishing. Very colorful though. V

Looks like a tight fit. Great shot of this colorful and powerful boat. I don't think I'd want to do 160mph on the water, 15 knots is more my pace. "V"

Quick shot and a good one, Frank. Would a ride in this be nice!!!! V

Hopefully this fancy boat made it under the overpass without a scrape! Great capture Frank! V
