Blasphemy!!!

Last winter and spring, the initial design had been rolled out to groups of fishermen in Ellsworth and Bath, and at the Maine Fishermen's Forum in March. The consensus: these times call for radical approaches. But as one fisherman stated, "You better make it pretty."

the NAVY sure likes theirs

No douubt, it is a cool concept.

Hope the prototype makes it through the test stages.

Good for the Navy. It's ugly as sin, just like a catamaran.

If and when I build a boat, just like the fisherman in the article said..."you better make it pretty." I ain't dropping 300K minimum on a seagoing eyesore.

If diesel is up to $10/gal by then, well I'll just find a new hobby I guess.

beauty is in the eye of the beholder, cant fault engineers for innovation, or you still be living in the dark ages.

speaking of cats, 2 i wouldn't mind owning

I'd surely take the second one, the Buzzards Bay.
