Just FYI this took nearly a month to finish and I would highly appreciate all those "down loaders " to rate my boat otherwise there was no point in spending that long on it!
This is XVI's first boat its a small river boat/speed yacht with full interiors!
CONTROLLS
VTOL-throttle
Throttle-brakes (keep on for cruse speed btw I'm not going mad by using throttle for brakes.....)
Roll- low speed fast turn it rolls the boat a little in the corners but if you don't do it at 100+mph it won't tip the boat
Yaw- high speed shallow turn
:)
FEATURES:
nice looking hood (or bonet) ornament (or figurehead)
Fast can get 170+mph
Full interior with: two beds,stove,cutting board for galley,a box,an LP player!!! And all the stuff on deck
Full trim around edges
Lots of other good stuff!

(This boat for reasons unknown wouldn't let me mirror parts so I had to do everything by hand! If you find a mistake that's probably why!)

HAVE FUN! :)
(Don't forget to rate)

    OK, you are going for complete perfection. Rising standards can truely suck, I know! But still I think it is better to do it right and let others spam the SP hardware with 5 uploads a day.

    Wings need covering custom landing gears need to be made bomb bay doors need to be made and all the gun turret mechanisms implemented........ It's so..... Annoyingly frustrating when none of the rotators move because they attach to all the fuselage blocks.... @Kimo

    Lol I wouldn't expect any more things like this for a while, I've been slaving away at a short Stirling for about 2 months and have temporarily lost the will to build big stuff XD @Kimo

    @planesOfOld, I know, it just reminds me of the Italian style choices. Look at the new Rivas though, they lack some of the original character, but they are beautiful.

    No cause riva speedboats don't have an elevated pilot positition or an underfloor, they have a distinct shape @benjavo

    This sny a stable design I was trying to make it more stable but the hull hates being turned and rolled it's the weird crisscross of floating blocks I use to rduce lag they also reduce stability by a metric but ton @ramjet

    @PlanesOfOld sorry I'm use to the absurd stability of my trimarans they are almost impossible to flip bit they pale in comparison to the detail of this boat

    @Ramjet what do you mean by that if you are flipping you should be more gentle its a piece of art and a pleasure yacht so is designed for good ow speed handling and amazing hight ace speed handling I suggest using the roll in tight turns and yaw the opposite direction to roll, nothing has bad handling useless the pilot wants it yo be bad my friend.
