Shadow Marine - How Rich is Rich?

Luxury Yachts: The Paladin Shadow is one hull of a deal with its incredibly unique hauling power. It could be called the "U-Hull" of the yachting world! Since the Paladin Shadow's debut at the Ft. Lauderdale International Boat Show in November 2005, it has garnered a lot of attention from a wide variety of interested buyer types. It is a multifaceted ship with potential uses as broad and wide as prospective owners' imaginations allow. While being shown at the International Boat Show, it literally held my 2006 Christmas wish list on it. On board was a 35-foot Eliminator ®; a 30-foot Protector Tender®; a Mini Cooper®; a pair of Sea-Doo® jet skis; a couple of Sea Kayaks®; and for the times when traveling calls for hovering instead of sailing, a four-seat helicopter. There was plenty of room left for the partridge in the pear tree too!

A shadow boat's purpose is self-defined, being that its purpose is to trail (or shadow) the main yacht. The 170-foot boat could serve as a full-service repair shop for a yacht or be turned into an extension of the main boat. Although it is viewed primarily as a utilitarian vessel; the options for usage are indeed as varied as one's imagination.

Shadow Marine plans to add to its ensemble with the Mystere Shadow, which is expected to be premiere by the first quarter of 2006. It is sure to pique your interest. Take a peek for yourself at www.shadowboat.com.
