Yes I am serious.

I'm currently building a replica Riva Aquarama redesigned to 33' w/dual 8.1 Volvo GXI's for a client here in South Florida.

I would like to build more original designs for sale to the ultra wealthy whom troll the waterways down here. I like what I see from you designs.

I feel Riva was a great design from a mix of Chris Craft barrel backs, the cockpit from say hacker and the unmistakible Riva front end.

Feel free to e-mail me at cudashark@adelphia.net to discuss this further.

Ray

the whole idea makes me want to , well er be sick\!! you cant form from explsives into ant controlled shape Take the u sections of a modern sailing boat, , they change so fast, that you have to make a pattern for every few cms of length, look at my gallery at the nose cone there, I formed that with tiny wheels, you can form anything!! with tiny wheels exerting big pressure, plate rolls will not look at high ten material. they simpy cant exert the pressure and the rolls actually bend, anyways there are no simple curves on any yacht except the transom
Another HEAVY EXOTIC metal fro Ru, Tungstan, for keels
