My boat has thinner floor in the bow section and no bulk head up front and 1 or 2 less layers of glass in her contruction.

Rob Whats the progress on your boat?

Borgi's yellow one is reportedly the fastest powerboat in Iceland. So if it goes round corners I'd love to see a video of him racing it.
If he sends you any Gav, you will post them.

That engine seems to get bigger everytime I see it......

What about the dashboard and seats. Were they supplied to fit later? Only I have no idea what a seaqual looks like inside. They are always posted with veiws of the outside and usually with a cover on.

I guess it's an optical illusion due to the size of the engine but the prop-shaft looks about as thick as my little finger!

My engine ran on the very 1st turn of the key and has good compression on all cylinders!
Everything looks a state when its kicking around Gavs floor.

That's a pic of my old Shetland Signature, Gav's boats come from the same mold, but he's updated the interior a bit.

robbie · 13-05-2007, 05:53 PM

Now I am confused????

The sgnature is a very similar hull shape to the Seaqual 600 which I thought was the same as an Australian sportsboat.

here is a picture of the Shetland.......

Your pulling my leg right.

Only I can see ones yellow and the other ones white!!!!!

mike k · 13-05-2007, 06:19 PM

They all came from the Australian Haines Signature 1900s. Shetland got the moulds from Haines and Gav got them from Shetland. They also did a 1700s which Shetland still has I think but it's a completely different boat.

robbie · 13-05-2007, 06:53 PM

MikeK I see you're into Lambrettas. I had an old 150 and then a SX200 years ago. I still stop and look as one goes by.
