Great looking boat - was really impressed with the 500/550 at Southampton.
What are your plans - uk or med? Looking forward to your updates as you get to know her
Very nice machine indeed, all the best for having a great time with her!
Can't see well in the pic, is the thingie in front of the f/b helm a headlight or a FLIR camera?
If the latter, I'd be interested to hear your view after you will have had a chance to test it properly.
I used one of them during a 3 days passage, and frankly I wasn't impressed...
Thanks All, I have her now until September in Southampton, I am hoping to get her to cala d'or or similar next autumn.
she was the sbs boat so I have decided to have a few changes which I am having done through the winter ready for the new year.
the item on the Fb is just a light btw, I have thought about a camera on the fb stern to help when reversing but will see how I get on without it first.
I have stern cameras fitted, 3 in the cockpit and 1 in the engine room.
When you arrive in the Med you will quickly realise that stern-to berthing is very easy and you will very rarely use the cameras.
The cockpit cameras are now angled to show the complete cockpit so that people are on camera if they decide to travel there, and of course you can check when someone needs the loo and enters and leaves though the saloon doors when the boat is underway.
