we were just talking about Limitless on Saturday. How the boats kept getting smaller from Limited to Limited 2 and Limitless. They have just closed a bunch of stores in the US I hope this had nothing to do with it.Also hope everyone is safe!

It looks like Limitless, but I don't see where the article states that. Did you see that somewhere else? I googled and didn't find anything.

Your title states its the Limitless but how do you know it is. Doesn't say so in article. There are other boats with a Blue hull.

I don't think that is Limitless. Limitless was in SXM at the very least on Thursday when I saw it and the photo of the bow looks different.

It appears to be the renamed 30 meter 100 foot Limit Less.

Not the 314 foot Limitless that was originally alluded to.

"Little sister" is more like it. 90 Ft verses 314 Ft. Sorry to see it happen. Thank God nobody was hurt.

No idea on that, but as I said, not the boat we see in SXM. Sorry for the bad info.

Early reports are often incorrect. It happens everywhere. It sometimes takes times for the facts to settle in.
