Sea Trial on the Snazi 39

[MapisM]

I like the existing colour scheme in the saloon and IMHO cream leather or something similar would blandify it. Also I like to see an owner who has a firm grip on scatter cushion infestation; only 4 permitted in the saloon is evidence of a man after my own heart.

+1 on all that, though of course it's pretty much an "each to their own" subject.
That aside, the boat does look in excellent shape, congrats!

Sorry guys, been on the road all day today, so not watching the forum. The interior is in great condition, as is the boat. However, the saloon settee material is "a trifle sudden" for me. If the leather looks bland, then SWMBO will work her magic with the scatter cushions. She and JFM have very similar tastes in this area.

Congratulations! Lovely looking boat.

She looks a stunner Paul, really tidy.

I liked the 'birds eye view' shots of the interior spaces in the add, an effective way to demonstrate each of the areas without going to a wide-angle lense.

Off to the boat in the morning. We have a bit of stuff to do to make her ship shape and feel like "ours". Can't wait.

Hi Rodeo, we should be there at the end of this month/start Sept. There will be 2 Snazi's at Portishead then to my knowledge?

 

[Rodeo]

Yep that's right, "Volante" is right next to us.

We are hopefully getting our new boat (SC35) around the same time delivered as well, we currently have bayliner 285.

Just catching up on threads now back from (non-boaty) holiday. Great choice of boat, always liked the Azi 39, and looks a fine example. Don't see anything wrong with saloon upholstery myself, but that's just personal. Congrats.

Just to add, huge congratulations Rafiki on completing this purchase. Jet looks amazing, and in fabulous condition. I still remember well MBY's glowing report on the Snazi39 when they first tested her (with Cat engines, iirc) some years ago.

I'm less sure about Portishead )) but I can see your logic with your work travel

Re the leather, in view of the headlining colour and everything, it has to be cream or dark chocolate I think. Either will look great imho, with appropriate scatter cushions of course.

Many thanks JFM, we are really pleased. Yep, you're right on you colour selections as ever. Chocolate is the brave choice, but we will probably go for the cream. Lady wife is browsing the scatter cushions as I write this.
The stainless steel lettering has arrived, and will go onto the transom next time we are down.
