Thought you guys would appreciate this and all the work that went into the design. It's based off a 48' Marine Technologies Inc hull

This is coming from the same company that made a different boat to match the Z06 a while back http://www.corvetteonline.com/news/mti-%E2%80%9Ccorvette%E2%80%9D-catamaran-sold-alongside-z06-and-matching-trailer/

No, it doesn't have twin 638 hp motors...it has twin 1350 hp twin turbo Mercury Racing motors.

This MTI was themed after a ZR1 Corvette with all the original GM parts used in the build purchased from GM dealers. The boat is constructed of carbon fiber. The black paint job is accented by carbon fiber airbrush work on the canopy and the entire hull of the boat. The exterior of the boat has ZR1 inspired hull sides, headlights, taillights, marker lights, custom ZR48 emblems and engine vents. The cockpit is truly one of a kind. The cockpit hatches are a custom gull wing type that have built-in escape hatches. The canopy also has an electric sliding rear window. The custom dash has fully function gauges, a custom ZR1 steering wheel and shifter. The custom shifter throttles both engines and controls drive trim. The interior is ultra leather and suede, with six air conditioned seats. The driver and throttle man’s seat are power sliding with footrests.

AWESOME design. The only other boat that made me wet my pants, was the one they used on Whale Wars. It was sunk by a collision with a Japanese whaler ship. It was made to go around the world in record time before it was converted to a chase boat.

this may be a dumb question... but how does one go about unloading the boat into water of that ill trailer?

I would imagine that the trailer doesn't ever see the water....it's only for moving the boat around. Crane to get the boat off the trailer and into the water.

The VERY few people who have that kind of money (we can only imagine), the price dosen't even matter. There is a life out there that about 2% of the population can only enjoy.
For the rest of us, we live to work and work to live (if we can find a job that pays more than $7.25 hour). :-x
