Now THAT would be fun to drive, or better yet water ski behind. :p :rotfl: :rotfl:

Nice shots, is it just me or does she seem a bit down by the bow?

If she is doing 39+ knots in the bay, wonder what she is really capable of :hmm:

Co-worker said she was showing 48 on the AIS the other night; the pilots says she went up to 50+ on Lac St-Pierre - Numbers like 60 and 70 are being bandied about, but we're just talking out of the wrong hole, really.

I'm betting 65.

One fast ship, amasing how fast they can go.

It would be one H*** of a speed boat.

Thanks for posting those great pics.

Q. How loud was it and what did it sound like?

I didn't notice any noise, but then I was on a rather noisy boat about three cables away. I don't recall ever hearing the machinery noise of freighters going by, either.

She probably isn't fully loaded with ordinance or the Multi-Mission-Modules yet.
