> Comet is a traditional 42-foot powerboat designed in the style of a 
> 1920's commuter yacht.  Her aluminum hull is driven by a pair of 370  HP 
> diesels to a maximum speed of 30 knots and typically cruises in the  20's. 
> I've only seen her at top speed once and, of course, I didn't  have my 
> camera with me that day.  Lyman Morse built her in 2002.   She's 
> beautiful.
