Personally, I think its butt-ugly as a yacht :wacko: (my tastes run to classic and neo-classic wooden vessels - power and sail  :wub:),
however, it has great potential for marine whiffery.

It'll be pretty big at 18 inches/ 45.72 cm.







Slated for an October release at 29.99 euro, 140 parts.

Cheers, Jon

Boy, that'll look all kinds of cool fitted out as a pirate boat with MGs and a deck-mounted missile battery.

Would look great with a USCG helicopter hovering over head as they dump the drugs overboard  :ph34r:

Probably a better choice than the 118 Wallypower



which is quite a slab of synthetic materials but at least has had some photo opportunities in "The Island" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0399201/)

It reminds me of the boat from that t.v show Hulk Hogan did a few years back...

Personally i think all Sunseeker boats are horrible and ugly (think of all the pollution), but the possibilities as a raider... :o (didnt the intro of the world is not enough include a powerboat boat that had a missile launcher on the rear?)

Was this the kit Jennings referred to some time back or was it the sail boat?
