Revolutionary Boat Hull Design for Sale

Cheapskate!!! Why are you trying to nickel-and-dime the guy? Don't you
realize that this is the greatest invention since WATER???

I especially like the claim of "very small turning radius IF ANY".
Well, that and the website that must have taken all of 15 minutes to
throw together...

That, and the design doesn't even seem revolutionary...atypical, maybe,
but not revolutionary:

http://glen-l.com/designs/hankinson/slotmachine.html
https://www.boatdesigns.com/products.asp?dept=734

and not all that far off:

http://www.boat-links.com/Atkinco/Cruisers/SandPiper.html

Personally, I'd sooner buy plans to any of these boats, given that they
are from known and respected designers, they have (at least the first,
and probably the others) actually been built at some time, and they're
around fourty-four million and change lest costly. But hey, that's just
me.

Put it on E-Bay should sell there.

I think Shaun's being reasonable. After all it's only the lines and
offsets for that price he'd still have to make his own model.

I think you should get Billy Mays to advertise it (after he's finished
with Mighty Putty)...

There are lots of lawnmowers with a so called 'zero turn radius'. The
pivot point is inside the footprint of the wheels. The IF ANY
indicates the writer perhaps doesn't really understand what's going on
but that doesn't necessarily make him wrong. Tanks can turn 360
degrees without even going anywhere. One track forward, one reverse.
They call it a neutral steer. Useful to keep the thicker frontal armor
toward the enemy, without actually going anywhere and attracting
unwanted attention. Or just to manuver in a tight spot. I wished the
bulldozer I once drove could do that. It is possible to spin some cars
without going anywhere. You need rear wheel drive, and a big motor.

I realize all of that, but do you honestly believe that boat design has
a zero turn radius? Give me a break!

I agree. it sets off the old BS detector.
I don't really know about that particular boat. I merely wished to
point out that there is such a thing as a zero turn radius, in real
life. There are tugboats that can direct the thrust in any direction,
with the use if a vertical axis 'propellor' whose proper name escapes
me. Amazing manuverability, if not zero radius. I will look it up in
this textbook on tugs I have. There are smalll outboard motors that
pivot 360 degrees, instead of having a reverse gear, and with one at
each end of a boat you could get a zero radius, but that that isn't
what he was talkiing about. In short I think it can be done, but may
not have been in this case. To digress, the mowers are the neatest
thing since sliced bread.

I should hope it sets off the BS detector. Remember he qasn't just
claiming near zero turn radius but also no loss of speed. I think to
do that would require some new laws of physics.

A small turning radius like with twin engines and a bow thruster?
That would have a very small turn radius wouldn't it?

When I saw "zero turn radius" I was thinking being on a 45 knot
plane. I think the G's would kill you...assuming you were still on
board.

Being obtuse, I note that pulling my son on a surf-board,
he can do a zero radius turn when I am pulling him at 25 kt.
