    We may build an enclosed version of the Delta 60 Open next year, which instead will have a big canvas hatch to let the sun in...

    Here is an older design that I have updated a little to a 45-footer, about the largest size for Aq-drives...

    Looks better with the T-top.

    Yes, and the idea is to make the top very light from carbon fiber and possible to dismantle and leave behind or store onboard in minutes, when you don't like to have it up...

    To me, the original 60 Open (and 80 too) is one of the best designs around, but honestly, I think the curved lines of hardtop take away from it...

    OK, yes the Hardtop is more of the 40:s and the Fly from the 60:s design language. This is what happens when you time travel to pick influences...

    The swim platform is right out of a Transformers scene. Beautiful boat Lars. Proud to know the designer. :)

    Yes, I like her too. She was inspired from the Moonen 85 I lived on a couple of years. Today I am working on a similar but updated and faster 100-footer with raised pilothouse. It takes some time to get it all together with these half levels....

    This 44' boat is designed around the new Mercury 600:s where just the lower part is turning so they can fit into tight pockets like this...

    Interesting use of another advantage of those engines.

    I agree. Another example of how an IPS system takes less space.

    Did TD ever get serious with their pods? I know they were testing a few ideas with Cat power.
    I have always luved the pod idea, just not happy with what our market ended up with.
