A brand new Pershing 8 x is north of €8 Million and arguably a marmite boat appearance wise regarding the wings .The wings are the latest gen Pershing from the 5 x ( fifty ) upwards .
Personally I do not like them .You have to see them , be around them to start the hate .You won’t get it at your boat show attention span .I didn’t .

However the out going modal is sleeker and more pure .
Pershing 82 ish hulls .

^^^ around €4 Million , so 1/2 price of the current . Vac infused cored hull .But a sold bottom no core or liners .
Pershing 82

This ones in our marina - seen it out on sea trails and in the slings reduced to around €2 million now as a quick sale needed .
It lacks the upstairs driving Kirk chair . Vac infused cored hull sold bottom only .No liners but cored sides even below the WL.
2013 so soon 10y and twin 2400 Hp engines .Early hull bonded large windows .

Or this more / less same size but built old school , no cored hull only the top sides .Hull is not Vacced it’s a hand layered solid matt the trad method about 3 cm thick on the bottom sold glass .
Older design of the time ,No sitting upstairs, no massive bonded hull windows , just a regular size hole in the master mid cabin .
Only 2000 Hp engines the then current large ones .
Asking about €900 thousand, plenty around the €1 M mark .Saving a lot compared to the newer .

Its only because I have seen Adur out and about over the summer with punters but not sold ……got me thinking whats going through prospects minds .
Recent thread on new and the recent on possible alleged delamination issues in the modern vac infusion cored below the WL boats .
For me without doubt the older 76 .Accept the compromise of the lack of up top space , developed bow areas and sleep easier with out worrying of a latent defect or week hull when it’s out in rough weather . And of course the cost savings at a ratio of 1;8 against a new equivalent.
