[Guest DAYTONA-BILL]

Hi Clive, we`ll be on the Broads in late June, if we see Broadsman and get some photo`s, are you interested in me e-mailing them to you?. Regards .................. Neil.

Hi Neil,

we like photos, if we get some really good ones we would use them on the website or brochure (with permission )

[Brian]

Let us know when Launch date is Please Clive, im sure many of us would like to Pop over and see the Launch.

[C.Ricko]

Hi Brian,

I think Launch day will be very close to its first hire

Here are some photos from the start of the week so that you all dont think we have been doing nothing.

Hi,

That looks the business.

Low for the bridges, sleek for the customers and I suspect in many years time, sort after in the second hand market.

looking very smart indeed clive you must be pleased with the way she looks ? im sure your guys will have her ready in time i seem to remember you mentioning on here before you had brought three more moulds are they for later years or will you start working on them anytime soon ?

The 35' moulds we have bought are on the yard, the plan is to finish the RC45 set we are now laminating and assemble them then lay up the moulds again. we then want to build a flybridge 35 footer as a show boat on hire from Acle next year with a single engine. then after the single level 45' boat has been developed (which we should start after Whitsun) the plan is to develop a sedan top for the 35' hull which we have had designed, this will hopefully be available next year too.

I suspect we will start working these moulds in the next eight weeks or so..

WOW she looks beautiful clive, i'm impressed ,youve done a really great job keep up with the good work, can't wait to see her on the water when she's been finished, & with those sleek lines it's definitely got to be a SHE,( SHE ER PLEASURE ) lori

Hi Clive

is there any chance of a full stern shot im a little concerned that with that built in seat & the transom lip if it long enough to be safe... if its the same little lip on the funnel craft i pointed out might want to think of putting pull pit there??

Jonny

[C.Ricko]

Hi Jonny,

bit of a dodgey picture there will be handrails down either side of the coachroof, down both sides at the back and high and low level across the back .

[Guest]

more room than i first thought nice to see your adding the extra rails for safety

Jonny

[andyg]

hi clive, id forgot about that back seat,such a simple but very practical idea you see so many holiday makers sitting on the back of boats as they go along, now they can be a bit more comfy. good to see you have plans for so many new boats over the cumming year or two clive and the addition of the french boats, guess il have to start working away thro the newer boats now

Here is a better picture of what the aft end should look like.

[C.Ricko]

There has been plenty going on over the last week but I did not put photos up last week so you will have to take my word for that

all the liners are now in and most of the bulkheads are in. the galley units are nearly finished and the worktop is being moddeled. The canopy plug is finished and the mould will be started on Monday, the window plants for the canopy are nearly finished as are the remaining window trims and shower bits and bobs, also the engine beds are ready to be moulded.

the heaters have been positioned ready for installing, fuel lines in water pipes in and some electrics now beingducted in.

plus a few other bits and bobs

in the photos we have the Aft cabin, a galley shot and the mid cabin.

also the second hull is now being completed, we 'Back up' with the last layers of matting being laminated with grey pigment so it looks nice! (superstructures are backed up in white)

[andyg]

thanks for the updates clive, their looks to be tons of room on board, by the looks of it youll have her finished on time, will you be showing one at the boat show next year ie, on hoseasons stand ?
