I’m not sure what this thing is, or used to be, but whatever it is, I kind of want to salvage it and convert it into a house, or gCaptain office space. Unfortunately, I think it’s located somewhere in Russia.
Does anyone have the scoop on what this thing is, where it is, or who designed it?
UPDATE:
The gCaptain audience figured out pretty quick this thing was a Russian Meteor hydrofoil. And we also figured out who designed it,
Russian naval architect, Rostislav Evgenievich Alekseev.
