Who made the phantom for you!

Tony (& Bryn) @ Trio Mouldings in Southampton. I know sod all about these things, but was very pleased with the finish and was impressed with the amount of extra care taken by Tony in the fitment and layout. They seem fairly willing to make Phantoms a more permenent fixture about the boating network and indeed have a couple more on the go as we speak.....i'd get in quick.

Did the same company do the interior.

No, they got the interior done by a trimmers way oop north. We used Trios own front seat moulds (as i was not THAT keen on SB's originals) and we sorta winged some back seats together. Its far from the greatest uphoulstery in the world, but getting decent co's to do work this time of year was proving +++£££'s and i'm on a seriously tight budget..........or was before i blew it all!

Looks good, is the floor gelcoated.

Yes, all the seats, bases and floor is flo-coated in white all the way from the transom/ knees up to beyond the foot rest.

have you got a bow tank fitted.

I had tank fitted from Sb's original moulds and placed about half way ish up the deck. Its about 10kilos in weight and adds about 40 ish (i think) in ballast when full. They also put 2x overflows as they where worried about a blow-out if the pressure was too great from a new (efficient) salmon-style p/up.


BTW, hows yours going?

 

[The Iron Duke]

So Captain Chaos, are you saying that most of your boat interior is in fact wipe clean?

 

[Captain Chaos]

yep

I had double "wipe clean stuff" put under your observers seat to make it easier to wipe-up your dribble and plop!

coz we all know your a big girlie....now sod-off and leave us boat lovers come net nerds alone!

 

[Jon Fuller]

Re: yep

dribble and plop!

Is the Iron Duke, Pete Berrow?

 

[Jon Fuller]

No, not yet, spect he'll get his story straight when WE ask him

 

[Jon Fuller]

Oh, I thought you had.

Why?
