Adam F Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 Pretty impressive!!! I saw in in the yard a few weeks ago when we went sailing - wouldnt fancy hauling the main sheet by hand though!!! Yes, beware of the hole when wading, I noticed it on Sat, and avoided it, goes for wading in general really, we should always be careful.

great white Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 Nice photo Paul and hell of a nice boat. Does anyone know her dimensions? I would think that it probably draws a lot of water and would struggle to get into Poole Harbour let alone the Yacht Club. Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul D Posted May 31, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 All the boat's details are on their web site. 30 million pounds worth - glad I didn't run into it then !! Apparently it was supposed to go on Saturday but its launch was delayed due to the weather ( weird as Sunday was rougher than Saturday ). Anyhow, the boat is a little too big to qualify for the fishing club. Mirabella website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
