While trying to find a picture of the boat from "Waterworld" (which I could not find, but would love to find some specs on it!), I came across this:















It was designed by prolific Bay Area yacht designer Jim Antrim from Ugo Conti's original concept; it's 100 feet long and 50 feet wide; it's powered by twin diesel engines; the inflatable hulls were built by Arcata's Wing Inflatables; the craft was assembled in Anacortes, WA (where it was spotted several times during apparent sea trials); and it's capable of crossing oceans with "as much, if not more, stability than a normal catamaran," according to Jim Antrim.

And How About This For One Nice Ride:

Looks like too much time and money to me.

I thought you were looking for a raft.

Relax! You've managed to suck all of the fun out of the room.

I remember that one... Rick Dobbertin (sp?) was the guy, he created a few of Hot Rod's Top Ten cars. Including the car that pretty much finished off the pro street trend single handedly... the Pontiac J2000 that was twin turbo'd twin supercharged and multiport nitroused. Had an on board compressor for raising and lowering the body work, think he used a harley engine for that or something silly. Prior to that he had a bad ass Nova and then he did that thing to travel around the world... didn't make it.
