Crave the Wave? R20

Hi everyone,

Has anyone heard of a boat called Crave the Wave??

Went and had a look at it earlier, the hull looks like a R20 and the deck looks right, however the cabin area bit (not sure what you'd call it) is about a foot thinner then any R20 i've seen (which isn't really all that many tbh)

A few other interesting points, the screen is a removable one... Its made out of a really interesting looking fiber glass (very very very thick weaves) almost looks like something my gran would knitt at christmas...

Finally, it has some interesting looking reinforcement on the transom... 2" flat plates from the transom down to where the back seats would go, looks quite well fitted...

Will try and post pictures this evening... Any info or views on this would be greatly appreciated!

Andy

Used to be a great boat, have a few photos of it as it used to be fitted out... Had an absolute caning at the hands of one of it's last owners though. Have a look under the deck for the bit of paper i was telling you about, that'll tell you what it is and when it was made. IIRC the ones wit the removable screens are the earlier ones? If it's a R20 it'll have a sharper nose then a 21 and a pit.
