Broads01 Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 There is a new 2-4 berth that comes up on the Pacific Cruisers availability search, priced the same as Pacific Emerald. There's no details of the boat yet elsewhere on the website - does anyone know any details? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdnamsGirl Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Hi Simon I would imagine that it is the boat I mentioned in this thread: http://www.thenorfolkbroads.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=7530#p104180 Good to hear that it is now up and running.

Dan Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Well the little tinkers, teasing us like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 It got too much... I emailed Pacific and they have confirmed she is a Bounty 27 Sedan, like this http://www.bountyboats.co.uk/27sedan.html details should be on the website soon All the best Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Oooh look, the details are on their website now and it is the one that was for sale at Wroxham. Looks a nice little boat, good to see several good internal shots and a nice one of the outside too. http://www.pacificcruisers.co.uk/small.php Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broads01 Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 Nice! Tidy interior and good to see they've kept things simple by pricing the same as both Swift and Emerald. At £325 per week including damage waiver for a week low season you can't go wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdnamsGirl Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 It certainly does look very good! I think Richard was hoping that it might prove to be quite popular as an out of season hire. Does anyone know what the air draft on these is? Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broads01 Posted August 14, 2010 Author Share Posted August 14, 2010 I don't know exactly Carol but I've got a feeling it's low enough to squeeze under Wroxham Bridge if conditions were right. I'm guessing the Bounty 27 sedan was a kind of limited edition version of the much more common aft cockpit (a la Pacific Swift). There used to be more of them on hire at one time (I recall Swan Craft having one) but I think Sandersons have the only other one now.

Dan Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 I remember seeing "May Time" stuck under Wroxham once, so they definately will go under with the right clearance, though I think having seen that it might have put me off! They were adapted/designed from the 27ft aft cockpit model and had the same hull. Blue Line had quite a lot of them in France and a reasonable number were made but a much smaller percentage than than the aft cockpit model which I guess were much cheaper for a similar size of accommodation. The Sedan was the elite version I suppose Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 I've had one through Wroxham bridge before, but that was back in the 80's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DAYTONA-BILL Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 The only reason you like them Jimbo is because they look like "Inca`s had a baby", am i right or am i right, go on Jimbo, admit it, i bet i am? . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DAYTONA-BILL Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Hi all, i`ve just found out (maybe Dan already knew and was keeping it a secret ) that as well as Grayling, Pacific cruisers have another "new to the fleet" boat in Pacific Star. She`s a Bounty 40, and looks rather like one of the old "Rexmore" class that was in Norfolk boatsales brokerage. It`s always good news to hear the smaller "independant" yards are able to invest in the industry in these trying times. Good news all round i think?. Regards ..................... Neil.

Dan Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Quite an impressive addition that one eh Great to see the expansion and improvement Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broads01 Posted October 27, 2010 Author Share Posted October 27, 2010 I very much like the look of Pacific Star from the Pacific website- from the colour scheme it looks certain to be ex-Rexmore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
