Would suggest Lee is pretty spot on however the lockdown factor has now made it plus VAT , but its not as simple as that as there is fabric grades and glass work to factor in ,pm me if you want in depth !

Certainly I'd heard the £1k / metre figure before as a guide. Covid seems to have added cost and time to everything unfortunately.

Thankyou
Yes ,j tubes ,1300gsm carbon impression hyperlon ,5 chambers ,amazing re shape of bow ,removal of the swim door in the side of tubes ,and cut the seat away from the side of consul ,changed the tails on the stern of tubes as he suggested they were too long and vunerable (have gone from 19ft boat to 18ft but didnt effect my first outing so happy with that )
