Latest Blade Runner

Saw this rather large Bladerunner at Swanwick Marina the other day, any one know anything about it. Fecking great Arnersons with diesels!

Hi Tony

Latest Bladerunner - as built in USA and shipped over.

I believe it is going to do a Round Britain attempt before being converted into a 'cruiser'. At the moment it is all pretty minimal on the fit-out.
