Ugly boat competition. No prizes.

Colvic Victor 50? Has 12 feet of straight lines amidships, which I always thought was what you'd get if you used a 12" ruler on a 1:12 drawing.

<hr width=100% size=1>my opinion is complete rubbish, probably.
 
Re: She\'s one of my neighbours

Maybe but your talking of a 50' boat with top build quality. A bit of freshening up wouldn't break the bank - and you don't need to relay the teak decks...!

OK it's 5:35pm - let's time TK's reaction...

Somebody pinched mine as well..... the Buckler Islander is a shocker. Saw an East european beauty only today; Romantica (or some such) 26. Looks like an albino frog with wind.

He Shoots... He scores!!!

Controversial, but, much as I "like" them, for what they stand for (safe, family, go anywhere sailing) they just are ugly little brutes!

It's the knuckle on the bow. Claimed to be for seakeeping - actually makes the v berth bigger....

Hmm.....

Not nice close up, but seen from a distance at sea with full sail set she is fantastic. Suspect any boat looks good, provided you are far enough away.<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1>Edited by RobbieW on 20/05/2004 10:29 (server time).</FONT></P>
 
Somemone took my favourite which was the Virgo Voyager. Three things you cannot have together are LOA of less than about 30 feet, shallow draft, and elegance.

The Centaur is a beaut compared to its ugly little sister the Warwick which is a centaur that has escaped from a car crusher at the last minute. There is a particularly fine example next to me which has a single huge angular window on each side rather than the normal two small windows. Hmm...Nice. . On the other hand who wants beauty when you can have practicality.

Who was it that said that all women are angels fallen from heaven: its just that some have had a harder landing than others?

Reputedly great cruising boats and I know of 2 happy owners, but in JJs words not the prettiest thing to have come off Holman & Pyes drawing board, Oyster Mariner 35
