Hi Guys looking at the Absolute fly range and was wondering if anyone had one or new much about them.
I am based in Spain with a Cranchi 48 2003 and looking at alternatives, like the Princess 56 but can't afford it so was looking at the Absoulte range any information welcome.

I quite like them though sometimes the glazing acre-age can be an acquired taste. Interior fit out is quite nicely done (assuming you like Italian contemporary) and overall they are nice machines and have a good reputation among Med boaters.

As regards the keen pricing, I would say be very careful to ignore the base price. Look only at the fully specced price. I got a quote for a 70-something fly and the thing was approaching 1.5x base price by the time it had even a half-way sensible spec. You have to pay extra for things that you'd expect to be standard, like all nav gear, a/pilot, outside shower, engines painted white not green on a 70+ ft boat, hi-lo platform on 70+ ft boat, and so on with loads of other things that I can't remember now

Ok thanks, they are difficult to view as well as they do not display in the UK, build quality looks good and I have only met 1 other guy in Denia who had one and he was pleased.

I tested the Absolute 56 for the magazine back in March last year.
