Thank you for the link Marc. A few questions. 1. Without the tubes inflated, is there enough hull to provide flotation? 2. 2. Is there capability to inflate the tube(s) on board, and 3. How many tube sections are there and if one goes down (like from a puncture) is there still flotation and motation capability.

Harvey , Its fully floatable with tubes deflated .Its a deep vee boat at that point . Also there are 6 chambers I believe , 3 per side . Its a very safe design and built to milspec .
Now we just need to find the right buttocks for that seat !

It really is a beast of a boat! Probably capable of getting to Panama on its own bottom.


Just in case anybody is wondering "How big of a beast it is" - check this out - https://www.torontoyachtsales.com/boat_listing.php?id=1036

This is another 27' Zodiac that CIRCUMNAVIGATED THE GLOBE back in 1994. At that time it was outfitted with a bio diesel engine. It has been completely refitted and is now rigged with a 300hp Etech.

Conepatus is still for sale at Wefings. I suppose this type of boat requires a very specific buyer.

Regards,

Rob
