Proteus the spider boat. Not being used for what I hoped for. Just another part of the Marine Protected Areas Programs around the world.

Neat boat owned by the wrong people.

Looks like an overgrown pontoon boat to me.

Doesnt seem very practical.

Kinda neet that the pod can drop off and go it alone.

KInda wonder about the operation with one motor broken down.

We got a sneak look at it last season in September during tuna season. Neat concept and cool to watch fly across the water. To bad it is designed with MPA's in mind.
