Tayana 52 & Taswell 49

[Guest]

Does anyone have any comments (useful preferably, but not necessarily) on either of these yachts or any hints on where to find out more about them that may help me in my decision making process?

No nothing constructive... but I would kill for a Taswell 49 .

Brian, why the enthusiasm for the Taswell??

Tayana's and Taswell (I think the 49 is now called Taswell 50?) both popular here and good boats. Many sailed home to New Zealand/OZ by owners based in Hong Kong. Tayana 52 - Robert Perry design and available in aft or centre cockpit. The brochure for this boat features the most awful patterned upholstery but Tayana, I am told, are happy to arrange acommodation to specific customers requirements (within reason).
The Taswell 50 I think is only available in centre cockpit config. and they also
offer a deck 'raised' saloon arrangement. Personally I prefer the Taswell. Nicer looking boat. Don't know the UK agent but try:
Tayana - Ta Yang Yacht bldg. Co Ltd. Kaohsiung Taiwan - Fax (07) 6423193 or (07) 2229781.
Taswell - Tainan Taiwan - Fax 886-6-2644672
If you have no joy email me and I'll send mail you the brochures, I've finished
with them
Cheers
