not too sure about public slipways as we were based at Cardiff Yacht Club & used their slip, not a public slip. Think there may be a slip at the Cardiff Marine Village ( boat yard, pay ?? ) and a public slipway at Channel View Leisure for details & charges etc call 029 2035 3912,

Some very interesting boats.
Any idea what the model Century that is in pics 6 and 7 in post 1? I haven't seen one with an angular bow like that before. Also, is that a Glasspar G3 in pics 9 and 10 in post 2?

The Healy and the Glasspar G3 are amazingly similar. Change the sponson a bit and you have the same boat. Wonder how that arrangement came about? I do think in one of the G3 pics there was some confusion about the make of engine.
From what I have read this evening, the Century Resorter with the "Duckbill" bow is somewhat of a rarity.
