    Thats the big Nortech around 76' I think. I forget the size, but I believe it's hull #1 that debuted at the Fort Lauderdale, FL

    Yeah, but Nortech builds a light boat for it's size...... They do build REALLY fast race boats.

    agreed. it's half the weight (approx.) of a comparable yacht from italy ... but even so, hauling over 36 tons out of the water is no mean feat !!!

    but i cld not find performance details anywhere. any idea how fast they go?

    That is actually hull number two of the Nor Tech 80, which goes faster and is a bit lighter. Hull one was a hard top model and had electric blue stripes color with graphics design in launch.
