Thanks everyone for your kind words. I'm glad I was able to capture the essence of the 54 at night amidst the boat show. It really is a pretty yacht.
Now it is offical... Lars' designs are gorgeous, the Delta 26 won the Swedish design award...congratulation again!
Hi, back from the testing now and it was a success. We have not yet decided how much we will show and tell about the result, but we are all very happy with the feeling and the figures... BTW, this teaser picture is taken with my new iPad mini...
Here is straight from the Delta Powerboats Facebook pages today; Delta 80 ips during extremely successful seatrials a few days ago! Topspeed close to 39 knots and a comfortable Cruise around 30 Knots! With an astonishing fuelefficency and range!
Now that's a cool photo, Something for the next James Bond movie ???? Really sleek looking Hull!!! Good luck.
It is triple IPS/1200. And to Carelm, there are not many around in the Baltic this time of the year, but of course a few people from the builder was there to see it.
They are on the same line, but the mid engine is a bit lower. There is a lot of space all around them. At least before we put the tender garage in. But this can easily be removed for major works.
So I was going through the Delta Powerboats website from our banners here on YF and I noticed what I thought was a nice photo on their front page...
Wow the Delta 54 IPS is the winner of the powerboat of the year award! Congratulation goes to our Lars and his team!! http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...53014495.56923.203403953021455&type=1&theater
Will there be a mini Delta tender onboard the new Delta 80? Sometimes you will see well designed yachts with an ugly rib tender on the back and I find that such a shame to the design. For instance with Kinetic yachts they have a little version as a tender.
In the garage there will be a Williams 385 RIB with waterjet and the first boat will have an extended swim platform with a Yamaha Waverunner monster... We could also build a mini Delta, but it will probably be five times more expensive so it is not really worth it.
