Looking for information

[owen-cox]

I have recently bought a 1989 Peterborough Seville Bowrider with a Force 90. which is in pretty good nick and goes well. I have searched to find any others on google and can't find a single one. I am quite amazed by this and wondered if anyone has heard of it and do they know where I can see some pictures of them on the net. I believe they were built in canada and the company has now gone bust. I would be interested to see some others and look at ideas for flooring as mine has a very impractical carpet on rotten wood.

Have you turned to the dark side?!

I have never heard of Peterborough boats, however I do know that OMC made boats in Peterborough, Ontario in the 80's. Its possible its had new stickers at sometime and its actual builder has been lost. Have you got a picture of your boat and we might be able to identify it.

Oh yes! but only temporarily it is much easier to park the boat on the drive when I am working away than worry about checking moorings etc. We will be converting back to flappy things later when we don't have so many house projects to play with.

does it look like this, apart from outboard rather than inboard?

or actually probably more like this...?

Yes thats exactly the one same colour too! Unfortunately he still has the nasty carpet that I do. Mine has all gone very manky after someone left it outside without a cover for 2 years. had moss growing out of it!
