I saw this a few years back. It would be the ultimate cruiser type boat here. While the cost is very high, the maintenance to keep it reliable will be quite a bit lower. Not having to deal with lower units that are in the water is the single best feature. No anti-fouling paints on the lower units, no barnacles growing in the water intakes, no worry about salt water leaking into bellows, etc. Very high tech outboards but that's what we have today. I'd rather have these, than I/Os with cat converters anytime.

It looks awkward! :?
For a 37 footer, I'd still prefer a single shaft driven diesel with bow thruster.
Even less maintenance! 8)

Twin diesels boom and done. Buddy has a 31 sea ray with twin cummins. She get up and rolls to the point of dancing on the chine. It is a bit of a hot rod. Low maintanance sleeps 6, cold AC, and tons of room.

Pursuit also came out with this one about the same time. Both don't seem to have "it" when it comes to the cabin. The pictures make them seem small for the overall length of the boat.
Both have a great concept but not there on the execution.
