Performance figures as per report:

Top Speed at RPM

Speedometer
82 mph

Radar
80.8 mph at 5300

Top Speed at RPM

Time to plane
3.3 seconds

Minimum planing speed
14.5 mph

Fuel Economy

At 45 mph
1.1 mpg

At 55 mph
1 mpg

At 65 mph
.8 mpg

At WOT
.7 mpg


Which by my calculations means 117 GPH at WOT

as for price ... Sensible offers

There was a post about a year ago ( been lookin 4 it ) but was uncertian if it was the same boat or not as i had no pictures of it because it was in Spain,
Has only been back in the UK for 2 weeks and i have been all over it and cannot see any signs of repair / damage.

Can anyone offer any further info or confirm wether this is the same boat ?

Is it UK VAT paid? if yes, has it just been paid, or was it already?

If it was already paid, I'd bet my bottom Dollar it's Richards old boat.

thought Richard Carr sold it to some local guys, as saw it being used and berthed in salterns marina in 2004...
like the thread said it was sitting around for 2 or 3 seasons in salterns with a big hole/split in its forward port bow....

wasn't that the second baja he spilt? dont think Gavin Ellis bothered importing anymore after!!
