Very small boatbuilders about 100K north east of stockholm.
The builders name is Richard Hallzon - as I understand it he was apprentice to Kurt who originally owned the company and Richard took it over when Kurt Retired.
I "think" the basic price with balsa deck & "arrow pad", all structures (inc cabin, cockpit floor etc which I have not got) & mouldings is 140,000 SEK + tax, which comes in at about £12K+ the dreaded.
Cuddy height is pretty low, but enough, I hope. I'm 5'11 and sitting upright on the bench seats in the orange one (Manges / Arrow 830 on boatmad) my head just touched the deck. That's why I've specced it without much of the cabni structures so I can work at my leisure to come up with a spec that maximises usuable room - I think it should be possible to lower the seats onto the stringers to create more headroom, plus shift the cabin bulkheads a bit to provide both a small seating area & a v-berth.

Some video links.
Over 90mph
More good stuff (not just the Arrow though, this was a poker run. You gotta love Easy Rider - I read it as Belly Dancer)

Hi James, yes she is very stable but it's actually even better with little more chops. I was not at the wheel that ride, I was in the navigator seat and
forgot to trim out enough (Yees it's true )
We will do some minor things on the boat to this season and my goal is ofc +100mph. Should not be any probs at all.
Sorry for highjack your thread Matt

Matt, your boat looks very nice. I was at Richards place yesterday to plan the o/b boat. My old man (Boat builder since 1855...) was there as well and
we talked about divinycell (foam) in hullsides and deck for my new boat.

Road Trip
Me & Tony set off from my house at midnight wednesday night to start the drive to sweden & back to pick the boat up.
Caught the 02:55 ferry from dover->calais, and then off we go.
We crossed through 7 countries in 24 hours - UK, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark & Sweden. We took a slightly longer route through denmark to ensure we didn't need to take any ferrys, only bridges.
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&sour...,56.953125&z=5
Farnborough to Vaddo in Sweden and back again was 2710 miles total.
We did the whole trip in about 64 hours, inc ferry crossings, stopping for a nap, and loading the boat up.
Very grateful to Tony for all his help to make the trip work.
