Default New invention

New-- Inventor tries to isolate the bridge from a waves action. I like the inverted V bottom on those pontoons. Reminds me of the flats boat. AND JUST AS WET. Servos and gyros electro pneumatic computer required , sounds complicated.. Watch the short video to really see what it does..

Thumbs up

Gotta give him an "A". That's pretty cool. Not 100% motion free.. As you can see when he crosses the wake of the large power boat at the end of the video, there is some slight up and down motion. So in large swells the entire boat would still be lifted up and down, but the deck would remain flat during those transitions. Really a very interesting boat.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
