Theres an american MY, 33ft or so with an island double and a QSB cummins. Saw one once and was very impressed - can't remember the make - was obscure enough, but lovely.

Also:
Jersey 30

Edit: Halvorsen 32

What about the Offshore 105s, they have been made for years, a lot were used for charter fishing boats, i believe that Procharter took over the moulds, you could buy them at any length or any stage of completion to suit your requirements.

NFC- Nordic Floating Caravan, I'm sure they are fab, but not for me. NFC could also be No F***ing Chance!

I don't want a totally fishing boat. Nor a yacht type thing.

Somewhere in the middle I perceive pilot boat style. Nice.

Yes, I do have a Bulldog and its exactly right, but its also in a million bits.

Budget? There's no fixed number, whatever it takes to find something I like, its just the conversation with Mrs BB that has to be had(maybe when's she's asleep?)!

I had no idea there are so many different boats! (despite having been a motorboater for 20 years:oops::oops:)

ACM Elite 31 - French? Not sure I like it.
Aquabell 33 - If I could find a good one.
Aquador 32 - NFC
Aquastar 33 - Meh?
Back Cove 32 - nice!
Channel Islands 32 - Meh?
Cleopatra 33 | Cleopatra - Dated?
Cygnus Patrol 30 - Possible
Duffy 31′ | Atlantic Boat Company - Slipghtly awkward looking?
Fairey Bulldog if I could find one. - apart from the one I have, AFAIK there is 4 in UK and 1 in France
Halvorsen 32 - NFC
Hardy 32 - Bit tubby, kinda British NFC
Jersey 30 - Might have to look at that a bit more closely.
Kent 33 - I could not live with that arse end.
Languard Nelson 113 - nice, big convo with Mrs BB.
Lochin 33 or 330 - big lump, can I find a nice one?
Maine-Built Powerboats - bit too 'merican.
Mitchell 31 Mk3 very nice - there's 2 for sale, one of which I am tempted to go see.
Nelson 34 too narrow - but I did see a nice one today.
Nelson 40 like JMNapiers monster - love your boat Jonathan, but too big.
Nimbus 310 or 320 - NFC
Offshore 105 - but a bit too fishing boaty
Osbourne 33 - Ancient dated thing, trouble ahead!
Saga 29 - small, NFC
Saga 315 - NFC
Saga 325 - NFC
Sandvik 945 - NFC (and horrendous)
Skilso Arctic - NFC
Storebro Royal Biscay 31 - too old.
Tresfjord 31 - NFC
Viki 32 - NFC
Weymouth 34 - not sure if I'm old enough.
Wilbur 31' - I'll have a better look.

And the Cockwells Duchy 27. Bit small maybe, very pretty, was previously the Maritek Aquila 27 - don't seem to be any for sale. I'd be interested to know how many Aquila were built.
