@Kim It is one of these big twin hull boats. I would say 100 feet long. For tourism, not for racing or fun.

well its knida hard to find a cat built for racing
they're really slow, but much more stable
did you sail (like mainsail + jib, the little sail in front) or did you just motor away?

OOps, forgot to say: this is a twin turbojet boat, no sails.

i missed the point of the "twin turbojet" is that the new propulsion systems they have?
You missed out on a lot, sailing ROCKS!
btw once i saw a 150 foot or something triple hull cat
and it even had sails. Big ass sails!

Well I suspect that when they call it a catamaran, it is a bit far fetched. In fact this is a twin hull, twin turbojet propelled boat. As soon as it attains a certain speed, the air passing under the boat between the two hulls lifts it so that it sort of flies above the sea.
Sorry, my mother language is french, so that I dont know the correct words in english. Anyway I probably don't know the proper words in french either, not being a sailor at all.

OK. Then, as nobody seems to have recognised the view in my first picture: it is part of the Boston harbour and the city center seen from the south end. And the second picture was a picture of the two water propulsing jets at the back of the boat used for whale watching. As it is intended for looking at endangered species, the crew placed a big emphasis on not polluting the sea. So asked us not to throw anything overboard, not even cigarette ends. But at the same time when you looked from the back of the boat, you could actually see the strong pollution from the two huge engines (the well known brown/reddish color of the air due to nitrogen dioxide released by the combustion of oil). This was kind of ridiculous and laughable.
