Fletcher Arrowbolt 21 for Robin.

They are the only photos I have of the boat from around 1987 V8 mercruiser powered, from memory she was a couple of years old then, big hair and rolled up jacket sleeves, Don Johnson style trouble was an Arrowbolt was no Scarab 38KV, but hey how gives a ****, it was great time to own a boat, plenty of work, plenty of money.

Great pics - thanks!

I can see you all looked the part - what a great era for boating.

I think I have my work cut out to get mine back to showroom, but patience is a virtue - or so I'm told...

P.S. If anyone else has any 70's or 80's Fletcher Arrowbolt pics, I'm particularly looking for interior and fittings shots, but all are good... (With or without the self styled Don Johnson crew )

Cheers.

I spent much of the time between 87-90 with 3 jobs - assistant manager of a nightclub, newspaper distribution in the early hours when I finished at the club and electrical installation by day. I'd be asleep on my feet now! A bit of misspent yoof really - worked hard but played equally hard. A great era, but should have invested more and drunk less I fear...

Sadly I was a late developer on the boating front - criminal given I lived by the sea. Didn't know what I was missing...
