MBY's spot the boat

[Jack Haines]

She's standing on a submerged bathing platform in a big, floppy hat. But can you spot the boat?

Very good call, but not quite.

This is nicely confusing because Al has shown the same boat I think, with a bit more revealed (only of the boat, alas). I think it's an absolute 55 STY.

Where's me2 when we need him?

EDIT - me2 has got it, on the other thread (fly 45)!

 

[me2]

I'm here.....
As discussed on the other post I believe it is a 45 FLY. I was giving you all a chance, promise

Are you professionally involved with boats? How come you nail it each and every time? Good for you, just curious.

 

[me2]

No, I am not professionally involved in boats, although I would like to work in the boating industry. Just a 16 year old who is mildly obsessed with boats.

I'm baffled by this thread.

I honestly never saw this thread before I posted my Spot the boat.

Its an Absolute 56 Sports Yacht.

Sorry for the confussion guys.

Al.

I guess we just liked the look of the same picture, Al!

so you were 6 when you joined the forum? must be a record,
except Jfm might have been younger

 

[me2]

Just to clarify, what is the boat jack?

56 STY.

I'm confused too. There isn't even a 56 sport yacht listed on their website. There's a 56 sport cruiser, which is not the boat in the pic, but no 56 sports yacht. There's a 55 sport yacht (and a 45 fly!)

This is Reece's Dad ( what a thing to admit !! Peanuts .... shut up ) he uses my login .

From what he was saying last night there is a small kick in the hull by the platform on the photo which is not there on the 55 SY but it is on the 45 Fly , I could see what he was on about so I am confused to.

And Reece ..... you should be at school !

 

[Alistairr]

Yes, their website is rubbish, and....... exactly, how many boats do they build now????

Definately a 56.

Al.

 

[Jack Haines]

It may not be on their website yet but the boat in question, as Al points out, is the 56 STY.

I tested it recently and it replace the 55 STY you're talking about, John, with some pretty minor changes to differentiate the two.

Aha, all clear then, thanks. I had no idea the 56 even existed as an evo of the 55, due to their rubbish website, so I'll claim half a tatty cigar for my STY55 answer then. Main thing is, I got one up on me2, all by spotting the underwater white pod which The Grand Master missed. That won't happen for another 100 years so I'll savour the moment

It belongs on another thread jack but did you check the options list for the 56 or any recent Abs? I have the 72 fly options list and it's a right laugh. You pay extra, big bucks, for things like passerelle, outside shower, hilo platform, autopilot, having the engines painted white, and maybe even the hull. The boat ends up costing 1.5x the base price. Just ridiculous, and kinda puts buyers off
