It was Kemps Quay in southampton. Was he ginger? As my user name gives it away

he was more blue than anything... more antifoul when on him than the boat I reckon

Syd, is she a Bertram 42?

She is indeed Martin, remember that scanned brochure you emailed to me to post on your behalf because yours was playing up at the time? It's the same boat.

Do you keep your boat in the new Inverness marina by any chance? If so, had a look at your boat today, I can report she looks as good as the pics I have seen of her... very impressive

Was she afloat or on the hard James? Just wondering how severe Alf's engine problem is.

Afloat ...

She's afloat ... and still in use.....predominantly one engine and port only used during manouvering

Cylinder 5, piston fatal failure and top of piston (with compression rings) therefore nicely placed at top of stroke, and bottom part of piston just going through the motion.... so a straight five cylinder now...

will start the dismanteling and re-build in situ some time in October I hope... and pending how well it goes, I may do re-build of starboard as well when I am at it....

Very nice, we viewed her when looking for a boat back in 2010, I would have liked to have her but we needed something a little bigger.

It's a while now since she was in Portugal having her new motors, she still looks good.

Thanks Paul, we like to think so. Had a few engine issues last year, hopefully now fully sorted - if only we could fix the fuel consumption rate

 

[dodgey rascal]

First year last year...seeing if we like itthen maybe bigger

"Legacy"- Mahogany, diesel inboard, hung high, aft and bassakwards, running to a forward v-drive.

Lovely boat indeed.
The aft platform is an afterthought, I suppose?

Not our boat but here are a few pics of a forum favourite.

 

[FalconSteve]

This is our Falcon 27

She is called Merlin and is powered by twin Volvo Penta AD31's

Is that the 44 that had the 430hp Sabre engines and was for sale for a long while?

IIRC she had Volvo's originally and the owner wanted some more oomph - so new TAMD75's were installed by Newark Marina.

Great to see this thread resurface - so many fantastic boats and such a varied collection. It's fast becoming a 'must read' for anyone who's looking for inspiration - a bit reminiscent of staring across a crammed marina! Keep 'em coming...
