Does anyone know anything about these boats?
They seem very pretty but wht are their characteristics like?

I may have totally the wrong boat but was this a relatively recent motor boat (possibly 1980/90's) built of timber using the West Epoxy system? Some also with GRP hull and timber super'? Around 29 feet.
If so, I thought they looked rather nice in an old fashioned sort of way, with the advantage of modern equipment. I think they had twin Yanmars. Not sure of size, but cruising in the mid teen kts, and I believe well thought of.
I suspect they made very few.
 
I knew I'd seen the boat test somewhere.

I've always liked them. I don't think many were built though. It was a few years since I last saw one 'in the flesh' but she did look very nice. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
