I agree the above but I'm going to anyway:

fairline............................ bmw
princess.......................... merc
sealine...........................vauxhall
doral................................chrysler
sessey oyster...................Dacia (???a brand no-one knows in this country)
windy.............................aston martin though at BMW pricing so maybe BMW 6 series)
regal................................chrysler
jeanneau prestige...............top of the range Renault. Perfectly good motor, some nice bits of avant garde design, loads of great features but a few cheapy parts still noticeable
hardy...............................LandRover defender


Newbie too so this was a great help :)

Nah - I would't compare Sessa to Dacia. Dacia is the low end of old Renault parts, feels and looks cheap inside.
The finish of Sessa is quite nice, imho.

Agreed, and not intending here to insult Sessa owners, sorry. I didn't read sessey oyster as meaning Sessa. I just didnt recognise the name at all, hence the choice of Dacia, which is almost unknown

Fairline = BMW
Princess = Mercedes
Sessa = Dacia/Citreon
Cranchi = Fiat
Azimut = Alfa Romeo

If I look east and really squint, I think I can see the steam coming out of Poweryachts ears! :D

How about,

Fleming.........Bentley

(No interest in this apart from I have a Fleming! But I don't have a Bentley....)

I think a Fleming is a bit more robust than a Bentley. In a Fleming the rep is to go anywhere. I don't think you would say the same of a traditional Bentley, although the VW based 6xx's are much more reliable.
