Seriously thats a beauty! I'm sure they would enter the the RB08 if only they had a class for multihulls!
After all it wouldnt take long for that thing to cross the atlantic! Im sure Branson's shitting his pants as we speak!

I was never suggesting they run a gas turbine cat in the RB, just that they would have been and interesting team had they decided they were up to the challenge.

And I'd like to see a 300 foot sea cat with 30,000hp do it, but they're not allowed either.
