Thanks - lets hope so!

How are things going with the 29 - would be great to see it back on the water! Still got that rear seat module if you need it.

Yes - all production in China - as the yard over there are the ones who have invested in the tooling etc.

Price wise - still difficult to give a final price - as the pound just keeps sliding! So still working on final prices and building in margins for dealers etc.

However I can do some good prices on the first two customer boats - but after that I'm not really looking at being the agent. Hopefully will find dealers / agents. I'm happy to help out with importing etc.

Many thanks for comments - really pleased how it has all turned out myself - now to get one on the water!

Interest has been really good - so will arrange some demo days when all ready. Not just on the South coast either.

Ideally looking to find agents for them in time - but just be good to get many people out trying the boat and get some feedback.

Anyway - another photo of the red / white version - which is the boat I'm keeping and rigging with the E-TEC.

thanks

Hey Adam,
You do know the forum supports up to 1024 wide pictures (wider than it used to be) so you can post higher res pics if you want?

Sounds good - will have to see if I can get some better photos - but most come in from China in fairly low resolution.

Should be good once boat 1 is on the water and have some running photos.

Thanks

Just waiting around now - pretty much everything lined up ready for a quick rig when they arrive.

Back at the builders they are constructing another one for theirselves and also a RIB version is underway with a couple of orders already.

Very close - the ship is due into Southampton at 7pm.

By the time it is unloaded and customs cleared etc - I have to wait until Friday. Then start work on them Saturday.

No problem - will be plenty of chances to get people out in the boat and get feedback etc.

Yes - the rigged boat will be kept on the Island.

Will arrange a few test days and post details on BM
