Anyone know what this boat is?

[Piers]

Some of you may remember Richard Poat from MBM Cruise in Company days and more latterly, Motor Boat Owner. Richard's well known for buying wrecks and rebuilding them into great sea boats.

Well, he's just claimed another wreck and renamed it Fermain Chief. Can you shed any light on what it is?

First, the hull shape

Second, the side view

Third, the inside of the hull with Richard wondering what he's taken on

A bigger/workboat version of a Wilson flyer 24?

Thanks for the help, guys, but the hull shape doesn't seem quite right. LOA of Richard's Fermain Chief = 21' if that helps.

I think you are absolutely right! Looks identical. Thank so, so much. I'll let Richard know.

No idea Piers but I am rather glad it isn't mine!

Happy New Year!

Hi Richard. He's already chopped 4' off the end and is adding a cabin and wheelhouse. A 60 hp outboard will be added etc, etc.

Good to hear from you, and sorry not to have spent more time with you without last year's interruptions....

Funnily enough I was going to post that it seems to have shrunk a little..
Its a solid boat, and I am sure that Richard will turn it into a rather nice little cruiser as he has all his other projects.

Richard came around last night and was so pleased to know what it was. He asked me to pass on his thanks.

I know this post was a long time ago but I was wondering if any one had the plans for fastworker 21-24 as I have one that I would like to fix up

 

[Jim@sea]

Its a Moneypit Mk11.

The very boat in the photos was sitting in the Guernsey yard for years. The guy who lived nextdoor to me had a big Lotto win and wanted to put a big block Mercruiser petrol and outdrive in it. Idiot.

Just spoken with Richard Poat who has identified it as a NAB 21.
