Howards Way Sealine

[ari]

OK, I'm sorry, but this is bothering me...

In this months MBY there is a used boat feature about the Sealine 328 Ambassador in which it states that this was the model used in the title credits of Howards Way.

I could have sworn that it was a Sealine 285 Ambassador that was used, charging around a Barracuda yacht if the "little grey cells" serve me properly?

Can anyone remember???

Think yer right from memory of last post on the subject.
It was from a bloke who was there at the time.

Just had a chat with Ken Masters (he's into secondhand cars these days).

Yep. it was his 285 they borrowed which, we all agreed at the time was a bit weak, but the opening shots looked OK so what the hell.

Whatever happened to Avril Rolf?

Not far enough am 'fraid...but they will in the future, if you know what I mean.

My mate Malc' bought it soon after the show ended so he should know. I'll ask him.

Yeah, it was Chris Collman of Quaysport in Menorca who said he drove the boat for the shoot.

It was definitely the 285 used in the credits. Can't recall ever seeing a 328 but there was a 30 flybridge used a couple of times.

Thank you all.

I thought it was a 285!!

Oh well, in defence of MBY, they're both white with twin engines I suppose......

Thanks again!
