I don't know the answer to Andrew's question however I assume he is taking about the orange Aquafibre 42 Sunset class. I believe Beaver Fleet which became Crown and had about 4/5 which were originally the King of Light class dating from 79/80. Royals bought 1 or 2, one went to Newson Boats Oulton Broad and one went to Moonfleet Belaugh although that may have been a Royal/Newson boat.

Not sure Richardsons had any Crown boats from StOlaves although they did have some of the Beaver Fleet New Generation class called Roving Gem although these may have come from France when the Rank Organisation bought Beaver Fleet France. During the 90s and 2000s they also had a large number of Crown Blue line boats mainly from France.
