Thanks Capt. Tom, that pretty much puts the winnings (a pint of Tanglefoot) in my hands. Sorry for the spelling of Evviva, my eyesight was a...
Had the pleasure of attending a wee party on Exuma over the last few days, and saw this off Stocking Island. I think its a Westport 164 (I'm...
Third profile down looks hot. Shame you had to cut 7 metres off her stern though, the original sloping aft 'ears' looked great. Whats 22 odd feet...

Hi TK, the endurance figures youve quoted and the power curve you posted are for the C32 @ 1675mhp. You actually have the 1572mhp rating so any...
A party of young pleasure-seekers moor offshore of a beautiful deserted island. A young lady walks inland to explore. As she gets deeper into the...
