really interesting story. I'm very surprised to hear that CFD hasn't been adopted in the recreational boat building industry until now so good on you for taking the plunge.
Now....let that technology waterfall down to a 26-29' Hull that more people can afford and use on a more frequent basis. I don't want quads or a boat that I cannot put on a trailer and head to the FL Keys for a week.... I want a twin engine, catamaran, in floor fish boxes, coffin box for storage or big tunas...in the 26-29' range.
2x I am not interested in any boat that technically I need a permit to trailer - therefore, 8.5ft is max beam. I am getting ready to take extended trips throughout America (but plan trips to every end of my home state Florida) and do not want to have to get a permit for every state that I travel to (towing my boat). But I want a CAT (that is dual purposed for fishing and cruising). 40 footers (even 30 footers) require living on the water, having a slip, or in/out storage. None of those appeal to me - been there - done that. So I am in agreement with WeekendHooker and would love to see you expand desired length down to 24'/25' (to get the right balance (length/beam) with twin power.
Ok so im a pro boater. Owned over 7 boats. I spent 23 years at sea chartering halibut and salmon. So what happens if one of the pontoons hits a deadhead or a log at speed ? Thats what scares me but i do want a Cat.
saw one today in destin inlet and i was likw wtf thatvthing is the bomb...im a cat fan and ran a world cat which i loved. but the freeman and these boats are top notch.
Turn up the music just a bit more, I can still kinda hear them talking.

How well can a twin Hull perform in rough seas compare to mono Hull?
Cant wait to ride on one of these. The Freeman lead time may be getting reduced very quickly

He started selling boats at seven years old...? Who buys boats from a seven year old...other seven year olds?
