Makes my 603 look like a lawn mower! 2,400hpX2 in the latest Viking 64. Looks like the German HP wars are spilling over into the marine world!

Wow only $418,421! Put as many into my 747 Cargo Conversion as you can headed for the Feadship yards and give the bill to my platinum blonde assistant holding the Gucci suitcase with the bearer bonds and the martini.

Oh yeah, you should see what checking that option box does to the new Viking 64's $2.5M base price. But who wants 1,500 Cats?

I like the flexibilty of a CODAG system. I like 20-25,000 SHP on tap when I need it

It's useful for drag racing other yachts for pinks in Monaco.

Very true, who wants the slower boat?

Usualy owners of such boats are not very concerned with fuel costs. As one said to me, "so what if it goes up $1, than I'll spend $40k this season insted of $30k."
