Hello Paul - Thanks for the information, I was not aware of this ketch.
She is called "Friars Goose" and I am not sure if she is laying at Levington or Burnham on Crouch.
I have been told that only about 11 of these Hedoniste 44's were ever built so it will not be a big list.
Just like the first Rolls Royce cars that were ever built, where you bought the rolling-chassis and took it to be fitted out at a coach-builder and upholsters, the Hedoniste are finished as a rolled steel hull and fitted out to the specification of the new owner. So far, I have not found any photographs which show that the Hedoniste 44 is 'massed produced'. They all have a totally different built, inside.
Thanks again, still looking for Hedoniste 44's.
