I wonder how manuverable it is. They have had a much smaller version at the San Diego base for years now, but "it never existed" even though I got a couple pictures fo it.

BTW, don't you Navy guys get a little persnikety when a ship is called a boat? I sorta remember talking to some old salts and got this lecture, along with the "it's line not rope" dissertation.

Ship! The old USS Enterprise CV65 had a reputation of going over 50 knots. The ship I was on the USS KittyHawk could go 38-39 knots. Fast for something that displaces 90,000 tons.
