MBY's spot the boat

[Jack Haines]

Hello all,

Time to down tools and spend a few minutes gazing at your computer screen to see if you can spot the boat!

Cheers,

Very tricky one Jack. It has aft lines lead thru "hole in the hull" type fairleads, which is very unusual for a (I guess) ~38 footer. Also one of those Besenzoni teak topped tables that folds into the floor, flush with the deck - again quite unusual and high end

I dunno!

Its not just the avacados that are looking lonesome.

Rodman Muse 44?

Rodman Muse 44?

Nah. The M44 has classic aft fairleads, open at the top. This boat has aft lines fed through holes in the side of the hull. Common on big boats but most unusual on this size boat.

Azimut 43

It looks like one BJB but the cleats don't match. Azi 43 has open twin bollard cleats, not ones that look like a Pi

Fair Point, Astondoa 44 (new model)?

 

[Jack Haines]

Good guesses all...

You're dancing around the right boat and someone has in fact named the correct manufacturer, anyone to hit the nail on the head?

Looks like the same model (boat that is) that took MartynKs berth in Alcudia when he left. That was an Astondoa 43 I think. A very "tall" boat if I remember correctly

 

[jfm]

Ah yes, astondoa 44 fly

Edit: nah, on reflection it isn't

 

[Jack Haines]

Keep going

I can feel the answer on the tip of your collective tongues!

Nope, it's not an Astondoa.

[jfm]

All the detailing on says Azimut. But it's not any of the flybridge models on their website

 

[Nautical]

Azimut 39 !

 

[Jack Haines]

Correct

Right on the nose Nautical, well done!

Jack

 

[jfm]

Azimut 39 !

You're right, but Jack has changed the rules on us I think - it's not a current model. Is STB going to include older models now Jack?

 

[benjenbav]

I thort you shouldn't question a lady's age?

Bikini drought!

There has been a worrying lack of scandalous brochure pictures on new models so older Italian boats are what we've had to resort to! Personally I would take issue with Dep. Ed Stewart Campell, our resident spot the boat researcher and anaylst.

You are just not looking on the right websites Jack. Have you got "safe browsing" activated or something? I'll PM some suggestions

 

[Jack Haines]

Thanks jfm

Just got the PM, thanks for your help, it's a tough job picking these photos but someone has to do it!
