looks great guys, nice to see marshan boats being revived!
the only thing that bugs me if anything is the fac that the painwork isn't quite symetrical across the back or the same down the sides but thats just my personal taste! the physical work you've done changing the styling looks great!

A 19 footer was developed but the magnificent 21 foot surpassed them and cleaned up 1984ish-Privateer, Desperado are two of the greats
Great in the rough and pretty quick in the calm-a real drivers boat
I think the 18 footers ran a four bladed cleaver long before they became fashionable 1976ish  |
Just found some footage from OCR '92 with Ian Stirling in what i think is a marshan 21. will post when i upload to youtube.

There are always going to be teething problems with setting up a new engine on a new hull.
Once they are sorted it's practice,tweaking,practice,tweaking,practice,tweak ing,race and repeat.

I missed the fine detail, but i understood it to be the water cooling lifters, or pipes in leg as a result it kept killing impellors. Hopefully Pete will get to grips of the situation and once merc do, they will be rocking

Frustratingly we took the settings from an old marshan that works perfectly and has done for over 15 years. The hull remains unchanged and the gearbox casings are identical but for some reason the new mercury didn't like it even though we set it back a further 8 inches on a lifter! Shit happens.....it will be back soon, hopefully.
