This is tricky. It's biggish, and those side deck guard rails are 1m high for MCA which is another clue that this is a big boat. But I can't think of any yacht builder who makes guard rails so hideously, with 2x washing line. So I'm kinda stuck. Is it some chinese Lombardini heap or something of that genre? If it's the product of Viareggio please do tell, and i'll weep!

Obviously ST34 not ruled out yet

A momentous occasion in MBY Towers when the great jfm is stumped! It is not a Lombardi, no.

Richard has managed to drag himself away from this forum and the Heat magazine website to go to a meeting so that's why he's yet to comment!

Cranchi 50 Fly?

E, it has 1m high railings on the side decks, with double washing lines and 50mm tubes in the girl's hands. And probably an SSB antenna. That's not 50-footer stuff. Strangely no bulwarks. I wouldn't even rule out a big cat.

ST34 with retro fit rails....

Sorry I have been networking on the 10th floor, I am a man of some importance.....

I thought we already discussed that the ST34 had an OB status of way over 2, so it can't be one of those! ;)

We all know you were at the Marie Claire Christmas sale by the way.

Is that a ... dutch ... boat,

No dutch builder would make such rails. Wolter Huisman would turn in his grave and the guilty parties would be summoned to Queen Beatrix to have their Dutch passports confiscated and replaced with one-way tickets to China on the next available flight.
