New p21
Please exuse my ignorance, but I heard someone still makes these down south somwhere
Can anyone tell me if this is the case, and if so, who builds them?..
I have pondered on the thought of buying the new 18, but not to keen on the new "chopped top look"!.....WHY DID THEY HAVE TO SPOIL IT?.
Any help on this matter would be appreciated..

Made by Trio mouldings, Speak to Chaos on here as he's got one. Don't think they build to Steve Bakers Specs though

Thats the name!
Thanks Burty...Though Tank, I thought the 20 went somwhere down the med years ago around 96, which was in fact the last year 20 I had.
Ill give Chaos a pm and fined out more,though Im off back to work in Norway at the end of july,so It looks like it's gona be at the end of the season time I get round to it.
The boat dosent need to be new, but it just seems that all the real nice one's come complete, or is it just me?
Cheers..

Trio (with we believe finance from Crompton) bought the 20, 21 and 23 direct from Steve Baker in about 2002

if the prices for the moulds had been cheap enough i was thinking of producing the boats to order as it would have been a good add on to my existing business but alas this is not to be

That's a shame!
I've seen a cobra rib hanging in slings (like a jelly), and wouldn't cross the itchen river in one, let alone a piece of sea, at least not at speed.
Hope they build anything 'phantom based' a bit better.
