Do you accept slavery as payment? There's absolutely no way I could afford it right now, but I think your race boat is possibly one of the sexiest things afloat...

Thank you for that - even if we accepted slavery the commute to Devon would be a bitch!

I am sort of looking for a Mark one Sunseeker Tomahawk, so if anyone knows of something - especially if it needs a bit of work?

Cookee,

I think there is one sat in Jersey that was for sale a couple of years ago, will be passing where it is moored tomorrow so can check it out. Don't think has been used for over 10 years and belongs / belonged to a guy who was a bit of a hobo.

It's just one possibility, another is to do a leisure version (the 770) with twin Verados and some Carbon Fibre, but the Physio is telling me I need to look after my back (it's and age thing), so a bigger boat would be better! Of course there are huge numbers of tasty boats in the states if only the Dollar would get back to where it was!

............ Just need to sell the race boat now!

I was thinking nearer the 37' length of a Tomahawk rather than a 47 footer! There are some crazy things going on with boat prices, and if only I had some dollars bought at 2:1 it would make a lot of sense to bring one over from the States!

If you had, your crystal ball rental service would make you enough to buy a new Predator.

Don't you mean the 19? Love all of the Phantoms, but I'm looking for something to go further in!

Besides they are too short for the endurance racing!

How 'bout a P25, a blow-up mattress and a Porta Potti? Proper luxury.

Another Swipes would be perfect for you.

I raced a Maltese version of the P25 with a 496HO and a procharger fitted - it was good for over 90mph and a nice ride, great Cigarette style paint job as well! Still no good for what I want but a lot of fun!
