Show us ur OSPREY

[Spike]

Im guna build a 6.5m Viper-Max (well Roy is for me) & would like to get a few ideas on what everyone else has done with there's ie: layout/consol/screens/colour combo's, would be great to see some 'flying' photo's to scare the wife with too. Would also be great if i could get some idea's on prop sizeing for a 200Hp.

cheers and pm if you have questions or ask on the thread above

Here's my latest 6.2 Vipermax ones. Don't forget the beam's narrower on the 5.8-6.2m ones. Hasn't Osprey done a terriffic job?

Hi Hightower,
Is that an Osprey consol? havent seen that one before.....i like. They do make a good looking boat, when you looking to get yours wet?

Nearly as nice as a RIBCRAFT.

No it's not an Osprey, it's one from an Ocean with a bespoke cutout for the legs.

I doubt it'll be in the water before the end of September, but you never know!

my old build pics, i am personaly not a fan of the ranger console, Ocean one does look nice be interesting to see it once fitted out for location of electronics,
i found the ranger console to tight for 2 batterys + oil tank, not a problem with 4 smoker, but as Jono and my self had made you can have an optional front seat area added to carry the extra goodies, or fit a shelf inside for oil tank.
apart from that, bloody good product can not fault Osprey;s build in any way..

Mine is sadly just a mental image at the moment

[Hightower]

See we're all doing it

I thought that the best website that offered plan seating pics used to be the Tornado one but I see they've updated their site and don't appear to have it anymore. But of course you can only create these plans with the consols and seats you supply. If someone wants bespoke then all you can do is to provide dimentions.

Parker have a PDF drawing that could be modified this way.

Thought this thread deserved reviving. Lots of pics of some very nice boats on here and we can't have the Irish stealing all the thunder

I felt that as Osprey owners are a shy bunch and hate to talk about their boats I would start the ball rolling

(Nice krarft, BTW. Très chic! )
