Aha .... the plot thickens!
You're SO organised.
So much to discuss when we get together next week.

You've got the Intro going well in the third pic: a great looking boat!

thanks, it was roomy inside too due to a wide beam, no headroom or privacy of course.
also my current boat came from Burnham on Crouch, do you know it? Solar Eclipse

The first pic shows the Intro's beam off well!
It's very likely that I'll have seen Solar Eclipse around, of course, but I didn't know her owner (as far as I'm aware!).
She's looks like another boat that must offer quite satisfying performance.

Wow. Amazed how many boats some people have owned!
My list is pretty pathetic in contrast.
Topper
Swift 18
Hunter Horizon 21
ComPac 23D
Must admit the way Americans design a boat just seems to suit me. So much so I’m now hunting for a bigger ComPac or a Dana 24. Very rare in Europe though sadly.
