In fact, this is not the case in Wu Chen's eyes.
The Fiat 642 RN2 Bartoletti yacht trailer is very much like the popular "Boaterhome" in the 1980s.
It’s exactly what the name suggests – a hybrid that’s half boat, half camper. Arguably one of the strangest and coolest inventions since the advent of RVs, the yacht RV looks like a land-based RV that combines a boat and a pickup truck into one unit. While the boat remains on the trailer, it won't be towed because it integrates seamlessly into the back of the pickup.
However, once the launch ramp is reached, the stern hull can be detached to become an independent 8.5-meter yacht that can sail on lakes and calm waters, taking passengers on trips in any season. All "Boaterhomes" are based on the Ford E-350 series of Econoline vans, chosen because the Ford E-350 has front-wheel drive to be able to pull all the weight attached to the back. At the rear end of the vehicle is a dual-axle trailer, which is also part of the truck. There is a 79-centimeter shallow hull on the trailer. The entire boat is equipped with Mercury's 200-horsepower DFI inboard and outboard engines.
When the vehicle reaches the ramp, the hull slides easily from the trailer into the water. The boat is specially designed for lakes and calm waters. It has a maximum speed of 64 kilometers per hour. When the car and boat are combined and driven on the highway, it can even reach a top speed of 160 kilometers per hour.
Internally, a yacht RV has a direct path from the truck cab to the interior of the boat. Featuring a full kitchen and a dinette that converts into a sleeping area, it has everything you need to live comfortably on the road, including a shower, and a living area that doubles as a bedroom with optional swivel captain's chairs , the interior is comparable to an RV.
But it's half a ship after all. Once the back half of the hull is launched, it will have all the features a boat should have, including some underwater lighting, a retractable ladder on the swim deck and a loud foghorn.
Essentially, this "car-ship hybrid" acts as a comfortable and smooth RV on land, and can be moved between the cabin of the boat and the cabin of the truck, taking RV functionality a step further. And on the water it's an exciting and dynamic cruiser. A cruiser offers almost the same comfort and convenience as an RV, but in a mobile home that floats on the water.
It is said that among the 21 existing yacht RVs, several have different layouts: they are "double-decker" with a flybridge that doubles as a cockpit. All in all, such a floating RV can provide complete accommodation for four to six people. Comfortable accommodation, as Boatorhome's advertisement at the time said: "Years of carefree enjoyment."
Therefore, referring to this yacht RV, you can actually think of the "Fiat 642 RN2 Bartoletti Yacht Trailer + Caridi KS-88 Flybridge Yacht" as a larger-sized luxury yacht RV.
After greeting Mrs. Pala from afar, Wu Chen turned his gaze to the modern girl beside him: "What do you want to say?"
"Did we make a profit?" Coco flashed her big, bright eyes.
"It's a huge profit." Wu Chen nodded with a smile, and then said to the CCTV camera: "Ladies, please pay attention. The next battle will be even more intense than before."
"Because we have upgraded, they have also upgraded." Policewoman Gianna has already thought: "It's like an ever-rising spiral staircase."
"Yes." Wu Chen nodded lightly and looked at the girls of the era on the pocket CCTV wall in turn: "This unknown journey is full of unknown dangers. The only thing we can do is to destroy or be destroyed. If we can't defeat it, we will Will turn into monsters like them.”
"Understood, Mr. Commander." The era girls on the pocket TV said in unison. Although I don’t know “what’s going on in this world” at all, fortunately, all the girls of the era are “fellow travelers”. Trust each other, rely on each other, stick together with each other, and fight until the last moment. Because as long as they see it with their own eyes, no one wants to become that kind of ferocious monster. What's more, the girls of the era are all incredibly beautiful.
"Mr. Commander, have you done something?" Amalia Pasaraka, an independent investigative female reporter, clearly realized that Wu Chen's declaration of departure was basically pre-war mobilization.
"Yes, room 10." Wu Chen didn't hide anything.
Coco immediately controlled the robotic arm and captured two new members of the armored bus: "The guest from Room 10, the female shopkeeper Marisa Menotti and (her husband's) mistress Claudia Pa Claudia Parise.”
"Excuse me, ladies." Marisa Menotti is the female shopkeeper in the night business area. And Claudia Paris was her husband's mistress.
"So, you two were put under house arrest by the night shift waiter Catalina, right?" Independent investigative female reporter Amalia Passalaka had already guessed it.
"Yes. For some unknown reason, Catalina, as a robot, actually wanted to be a hostess. So she put us under house arrest in Room 10 of the motel. She lied that we disappeared together with the money." Marissa, the female shop owner Menotti spoke about his experience.
"So?" Amalia Pasaraka, an independent investigative female reporter, asked with great interest.
"This is a complete conspiracy. We previously investigated that there was a large amount of expenditure in the night business area in the past six months. After tracing the flow of funds, we found that they were all used to order some robot parts disguised as 'auto parts'. There was enough …”
"It's enough to transform all the robot salesmen in the entire expressway supermarket." Wu Chen had already thought: "So, there is a mastermind behind it."
"Wow." Independent investigative female reporter Amalia Pasaraka also guessed: "So when they find you escaping from Room 10, these 'Catalinas' will chase you like crazy."
"That should be it." The female shopkeeper Marisa Menotti nodded slightly. She and her mistress Claudia Paris were not period ladies. It is a branch line specially set up by Feizhai that must be completed in order to achieve the maximum harvest. So taking advantage of the vacancy during shift handover, Wu Chen asked policewoman Gianna to sneak into Room 10 and rescue the two. Then he got on the armored bus quietly among the passengers. He seemed unaware of anything. But exposure is only a matter of time.
"Coco. Have you sent the walkie-talkie?" Wu Chen confirmed again.
"It has been sent over." Coco nodded quickly.
So Wu Chen used a handheld walkie-talkie to talk: "Elizabeta, can you hear me?"
"The signal is very good, sir." The female tour guide driving the Fiat concept camper replied cheerfully.
"Okay, Elizabeth, please drive carefully."
"Yes sir."
Wu Chen changed the channel and continued the call: "Francesca, can you hear me?"
"I'm here, Mr. Wu." The female shipyard owner driving the Fiat 642 RN2 Bartoletti yacht trailer responded with a charming voice.
"Be careful on the road."
"Okay, Mr. Wu."
Wu Chen continued to change the channel and said: "Ms. Curtis, can you hear me?"
The voice of female photographer Magda Curtis followed closely: "You can hear me, sir."
"Keep your distance and don't follow too close."
"Don't worry, sir." The female photographer was full of expectations for this private photo shoot.
"Mr. Commander, there is a traffic light intersection ahead." What is available is a closed-circuit television surveillance system.
