QuadZeus.

I didn't get inside the boat but got a snap of her going by. Actually, I'm not sure if this boat was on the show grounds or outside the area at the fishing boat docks.

you can see it if you google QuadZeus

that is basically a transformed Hatteras 60 GT, the Carolina builder have so far not commented if this will be an available choice on the 60 Convertible...
but they are again experimenting with triple engine set ups have also launched a 77 Convertible with 3 x Cats instead of the twin big engines usually offered for this model

So who dropped 4 motors into the 60? Without shafts or v-drives, that is a totally different config than any IB version of the Hat. I mean, you're looking at hull bottom, stringers, engine beds...that is some serious sh!t! Anybody from Hat involved... wacko.gif

using Zeus I think there is not much changes in hull design beneath the water lines, accept for the change in tunnel sizes and configurations to accommodate the ZF Zeus pods, amd four units
the engine are located aft, and I am sure the stringer engine bed system is totally reconfigured

i'd be curious to see the reaction of a nice blue marlin jumping out of the water and seeing that wrap!! anyone find pics of the engine room yet? i wonder what kind of performance was acheived.
