are both launching new 42 fly bridges at the show.
Wonder who was the instigator and who was the catch up.

If I get to play with one, I will give you a move by move account.

I was lucky enough to have a go on the Sealine F42 2 weeks ago and it was something special, the visibility from the helm downstairs is excellent, very interested to see the Fairline option next week at the show

You have an enterprising spirit
I'm a bit too conservative for me own good and still like the training shoe look.
The new Sealine F42 has a look of an early 80s girl's, flare topped pixie boot about it

Well, strictly speaking it's not a new model, it's just a mid-life refresher - bigger ports, new seating, bigger saloon windows, different mullion detail. But when you bought yours (end of last year?) then their answer would have been reasonable, no?

new model
I would be really pissed off... would have thought with changes to mouldings and the like they would have the change planned at least a year ahead. In fact, as soon as they became aware of Fairline's plans. Just hope they gave you a decent deal.

We were in Lymington over the weekend, and the Squadron 42 came past (I think heading for the fuel pumps). I have to say it did look really good, in sort of a modern/traditional sort of way. Lovely lines, and I reckon will in out in the 42' flybridge stakes

I know how much they thought mine had depreciated in about 8 months, it's quite a scary number. I'd stick with what you've got.

Looked all three and for me the winner is still the Princess some nice touches on the Fairline but seemed so similar to the Sealine in squaring off the curves.

There was a time when boats with square edges were considered unsuitable and a bit dangerous for the crew. How times change
