No standard TAMD61A but this is where we are spending our money with various bits on order to be replaced and bring her up to top spec.
Yes she has had a lot of work. Electronics, soft furnishings, carpets, generator, canopies (ugly but brilliant) upgraded shaft seals, passarelle, etc etc.... We have added a mini rib for the davits and will be doing boring but important work like new sea cocks, updated battery set up, new engine room fire extinguisher system, some GRP repairs (the odd 'ding') and heat exchangers. Once this is done she will be ready for some serious cruising.
We have moved to Gosport for now. While Foulkes is great value I was getting fed up with having to cut days short because of the bridge and we are time poor with two teenagers and work that requires me to be on duty every other weekend. Maybe in the future...
A classic boat first appearing in 1981 and good example of form following function.
Well built and have have stood the tests of time well both in looks and durability.
A revolution in interior volume , a few met the terrible fate of becoming livaboards.
Still a fairly quick and comfortable sea boat, loads around and good selection on the market.
The days of daft prices for the T36 are long gone and can know be purchased at a sensible price if you can find good un.
Shame about the appalling lack of access to some pretty vital bits and pieces and the total lack of vision behind, but a few holes can sort the former and who looks behind.
Some whinges about the smaller engine options but at the sorts of speeds usually now used with these boats, not lot of difference between the
250 or 300 HP options.
Owners tend to keep them, we have couple on our moorings that have been with the same owner for 20 years.
At one time we had around 8 or nine Turbo 36 on our moorings add the 3 or 4 Sedan 36 s and probably Fairlines most successful hull ?
