Just read Harry Metcalfe's article in Feb's MB&Y about life with you boat in Provence. Great timing as we are moving down in Apr and the picture of his Passerelle caught my eye. Anyone know what model it is?

Harry if you post on here please pm me we are off to Beaulieu Sur Mer and I would like to ask you some more about your upkeep company.

All the chandeliers stock them down there.
Avoid Ai one as the sea /salt will get to it and will corrode away
Go for an " inox " .They fold up and be put in a locker ( stern locker on our boat ) .We also have 2 mounting pionts one high ,one low .
Check out the chandeliers at Cap Ferrat -next to Capitaneries

Thanks,

I know the chandlers you are talking about. I tried to buy the fish shaped fender in the window, but was told it was just for display.
 
Is he the chap that does U Tube video tests for Evo car magazine?
