Re: Riva 25 Progress
Gert,
In one photo you can see through hulls before the engine went in. The big one I presume is for the engine cooling. The little on next to it looks as if the cooling line for the dripless seal is hooked up to it. Dedicated forced water through hull for dripless or optical illusion?
As usual a work of art. Bet that boat is not slow.

It's all too perfect. Looks like a model.

Mike: I suspect Pixar had to be involving in the modeling -- and Carl hit the nail on the head -- it has nothing to do with it being one's job -- it has to have passion and a sense of accountability.mike ohlstein wrote:It's all too perfect. Looks like a model.
