Halmatic Arctic 22/24 Wanted

[Bruceyb]

Hi there-I'm on the hunt for one of these beasts! All options considered, from bare hull upwards-looking for twin engine for redundancy's sake-happy to source those myself if not offered.

Currently own an Avon SR 5.4 but looking to upgrade

Can anyone help please?

Thanks in advance

Think there is one on “find a fishing boat”

[Bruceyb]

Thanks HDAV-think that one has gone sadly...

That one suggests it has new tubes made by Tilley but the tubes in the pictures date from 2000 according to one of the pictures.

The same boat is also on Ebay and

Nothing to do with me though.

I spotted that too , prob new old stock tubes released by the mod and auctioned by Ramco

That's the kind of thing-says arctic 28 though it's clearly not...

There was a fabulous one for sale for almost a year by Humber Ribs-I had my eye on it for ages but sadly didn't have the cash to buy it at the time and it finally went last October-Ive been kicking myself ever since-they're like hen's teeth...

Have you 45k lying around

Try these guys. Adjacent to trident base they often have for sale or know of one [emoji106]

Sadly no 45K-barely half of that-I think that particular hull has already gone-that was in Wales right? Thanks for the advice on the Helensburgh lead Ian-last time I was up there was visiting the Explosives Handling Jetty!

This looks like the big sister of the boat I bought in November. Looks fairly tired but could be the basis for an excellent project.

I see they have this http://www.boatrepair-scotland.co.uk...-artic-22.html

[Bruceyb]

Thank you Ian and Fergus-that's getting much closer to the kind of thing I was looking for! I think the Ebay example is probably a little too far gone for that price given the condition that the Humber Ribs one was like-darn it-I should have just gone to see the bank manager and damned the buyers remorse!

If the £7k and the one in the picture are related to each other and there is a choice of engines / consoles, it seems like a bargain.

I expect that it will be from £7k but certainly worth an ask.

I think that would look very good with one of the new Cox diesel outboards.

Yeah I think it’s £7k for Bare hull and tubes but still decent at that price.
