It will feel good after it stops hurting.

I know the SeaFlirII is gyro stablized. Works good as long as the gyros don't die. I also know that they cost $300K+ for a new one.

Mmmm gyros, make me hungry.

I watched that show "Future Weapons" on A&E last night. They showed an Israeli system mounted on an APC that kept locked on a target even will the vehicle moving around...except it was a .50 cal mounted on top instead of a FLIR. Now that's what that boat could use! Big Grin

Aww sweet Smile
I remember the testing for those being done over at ISC Portsmouth while I was at lil creek....and wanting to get my hands on one. If I was still on the east coast I would definitely go check it out.
I'm glad that Little Creek gets the first, fine group of BM's and MK's over there!

If it does it will most likely be due to me driving it like I stole it. Big Grin

On the flip side I'm really going to miss the 41's, they really are (soon to be were) great and dependable boats.

Seems like yesterday I was riding the prototype 42' UTs that later became the 41' UTs that have served so well. Man I must be getting old. Big Grin
