New Fisher motor-sailers on Apollo Duck

[Greenheart]

The company that was talking about building them again, seems to be advertising 2018 models, 25ft, 34ft and 37ft. Click link:

Of course, all the photos except the 25ft model, are of the old, Northshore boats...

...and inexplicably, one of the photos of the 25ft, is of the Freeward 25...are they likely to offer that version too?

But the prices aren't as shocking as I expected. I remember reading £90,000 for the 25', late in the 'nineties...

...and the new one is £82K (tax not paid). I wonder for how long? £270K for the mighty 37ft.

Going to see it at Southampton Show - show model, with not a lot of extras - circa £166K!

Youch...is that your ironic description of a massively well-kitted F25, or an engineless, ex-works F34 which hasn't been rigged yet?

Dan,

Not sure its massively equipped

Those extras are:
Grey water tank
hot water
Diesel heating
Shore power
Batt charger
Bow thruster
Electric windlass
Sliding hatch to wheelhouse roof

Doesn't seem a lot for that price increase

I don't know what comes as standard for your £80K

To be fair, the £166K does incl. vat and shipping

Yeah, I never expected the Mk2 would be cheap, but that does seem like a lot of cash for a 25ft boat.

Although, the new accommodation layout looks to me like a huge improvement on Northshore's.

I reckon it's shrewd, bringing her to the September boat show. If the weather's on the wet autumnal side, there'll be a long queue hoping to take advantage of that wheelhouse.
