Re: Sq 52 jfm + tcm

Thanks to both.

I think all 52s had 2 staterooms (ok tcm cabins w ensuite) AND a transverse 3rd cabin amidships fitted out as a workshop or washroom or 1 or 2 berth cabin mix + match according to ££££ AND the possibility of fitting out half the lazz as a crew cabin. Thus I could never work out why people thought it was only 2 cabin unless they didn't like the idea of shoving guests under the dinette via the the galley (bloody lucky for them to be aboard I say).

Maybe it didn't sell because punters hadn't "got used to the idea" of so many different floor levels. Me I was a bit iffy because I hit my head x3 going to the saloon area from the dinette whilst tied up at the SBS.

tcm - the 610 was the ? TAMD 122 ?? EDC which was replaced by the D12 as jfm says.

Now can you please moan about them big time to drive the price down further, there's 3 on the Hamble + 1 for sale at Brighton and I wouldn't mind that one. I don't mind being thought of having a dead common boat that tcm slags off as long as the price comes down into my range.

Glad to hear you don't think they're real duff but don't ever repeat it.

Re: Sq 52 oh dear

And they they have a sort-of box room 3rd cabin thing? So which nerk placed the fairline adverts that said "only two staterooms - how luxurious!" which made everyone else think "two cabins? -that's rubbish!"

anyway, if almost 20% of the entire production is for sale, its obviously a buyers market.

a yellow safttop sseekr 58 2.5 yrs old went for 400k , new price inc vat 670k. I dwd've thort that a 52 is about the same sort of "hated for no good reason" boat. So get in some nice low offers, then go on holiday.

Re: Sq 52 oh dear

That yellow seeker was a steal. I saw it go out of antibes t'other week, the yellow is only on the sides but there's plenty of white. So I thought it looked pretty damned pukka. I mean, I wouldn't choose it if ordering new, but it didn't look bad at all. So I reckon Paul gotta great deal, well done and good luck to him.

Back to the sq52, yes it was a salesman/marketing cockup, there's nothing wrong with the boat imho

Re: New non-payers posse proposal

erm, not sure if 56 or 58 axshully ahem

I sort of think the mca gambit is just utterly utterly not his style: I paid for a fillup of his boat, then he paid for lunch (four of us) at the tahiti - and i owed him money!

non-payers posse / new Learner

Er ok then! Like his style. No French-hating Yorkshire blud obviously.

Just back from pub with Learner. I gotta shock. He has joined a gym or summink, lost mebbe 3 stone and looks tanned and some years younger, the healthiest looking bloke I have met for about a year. He owes us a post on howtodoit. I thort a subsrip to Men's Health was all that was needed but 12mths on I can confirm it isn't. Learner has developed some elixir or summink, more power to hisa elbow

Yours very-impressed-and-jealousl-y
