MBY's Spot The Boat

Tricky one. I've had lots of idle time to look at this due to UK air traffic control fuses blowing on a friday afternoon, but I gotta admit defeat. There are very few builders these days still making curved non structurally bonded (wiperless?) windscreens like that, and also very few making foredecks with recessed cushions but no guard rails at all. So there can only be one or two doing both, but I cannot think who. No worries, and I'll wait for another poster or Chris to enlighten me :)
 
Quite chuffed to say that this weeks model (the one in the dress) could easily pass as my partners double. :)
Had to look twice and still had trouble, so I showed her the pic. She laughed and said I'd photo shopped it. Strange!

As for the boat I'm also having trouble, want to say Chris Craft due to the teak, curve of the screen and angle, but know I'd be wrong due to the size.

It could be that the sunpad is raised with a walk-around foredeck (Predator style)? It's possible then for the rail to be below the GRP horizon due to camera angle... BTW, I haven't a clue either, but does look oddly familiar. :D

Yes I think that's right, with a glued on thin teak capping but no s/s rails ( I think but am not sure!). Still can't think what boat has those features combined with an olde style windscreen
 
I may be wrong but that doesn't look like deck beyond the sun pad.....more like a bulwark around the decks?
 
At present I should be either working all hours to meet a deadline or frantically rushing around doing my Christmas shopping. What I shouldn't be doing is spending hours on the interweb desperately trying to identify a Fjord 40 Open!

Happy to be corrected but I'm not seeing Fjord40 :D. It's the right genre - I looked at van dutch and all those
