I am also looking for any information regarding the Lancer Corniche Express and would be very grateful to share any information you receive. My email is tomcurtis@chesterhouse.com. I obviously agree not to bid on anything you are bidding on! Many thanks, Tom.

Hi there
I have just acquired one of these which I am told once belonged to Peter De Savory.
Were you able to find any information, pics or specs?
If so would you mind forwarding it on to me.
I have not been able to find anything other than some adverts from Essex Boats which dont tell me much
Look forward to hearing from you
Phil

As well as the MoBo forum, it might be worth trying Boatmad as well.
They're mostly perfomance boat types, but the Corniche is bordering on their territory, I reckon.

I agree; they look fab.

Built at Oulton Broad on the site of Leo Robinsons old yard - later Pegasus. As I recall the head honcho was called David Buxton - who later became one of the early partners with Colin Chapman in Moonraker. Rumour has it he left the country.

The company (Lancer) failed and I understood the guys broke up the moulds to thank him for not paying them. He carried a revolver and used to like a little target practice around the yard from time to time. Old Frank
