Just dawned on me. It's a Mangusta 105. The 3 bits of window (one is black trim) don't allow any other answer

Jeeze - from downtown Viareggio as well

That 105 (new shape) is a beautiful thing, but I've never noticed those awful rails before. Close up they look even worse. I'm amazed Overmarine make such horrors. Nice OB though :)

An epic spot the boat this week, we got there in the end!

Agreed, cracking OB potential!

We may well have discussed it Jack but I don't think Wakeup has actually handed out the michelin stars yet...

Sorry guys, not on the ball. Only just read this.

I will convene the OB committee to review and recommend OB status for this one. The side decks are not normally considered OB'able rateable. Perhaps we need to re-think. I will report back. Anyone got a link to a schematic for this boat so we can do the calc?

JFM, I think your star idea is a good un. We will review the OB system and award stars for boats that go above and beyond on the OB front.

PS we probably need to re-elect the OB committee as many have now departed from this highly credible scheme since it was conceived. Please put yourself forward or second OB committee members?

I would of course put myself forward as "B"-checking seems an extremely worthwhile service to the community.

However, sadly, I have to decline. My duties as Chairman of the Fender-Kicking Society (CdA branch) require my constant attention. I would also respectively suggest that any "Score" of greater than 1 may be terminal at my age.

Hmm, Alzeimher's has set in, you are currently the secretary!
