^but we would have run into the same problems as the fast cats with cost overruns and no warranty. by hiring a private company to make them we got gaurantees on price and delivery date and performance warranties.



there were multiple problems with the fast cats that made them useless in the georgia straight... it's 2 am i don't remember them all, but it had to do with the type of engine sucking in logs and the double hull not working (because the waters are too choppy?)

maybe the 60 million dollar offer people realized nobody else was trying to buy them so they lowered their offer.... i can't imagine a fiscally conservative government purposely throwing away 40 million dollars....
