Athy Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Can't really see it as it's obscured by that dirty GRP boat in front. Seriously, some type of military landing craft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J R ALSOP Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Was/is at Harefield Marina it has machine gun mounting on front, and I think it had 2 6cyl. petrol engines, russian or from somewhere over there. I heard the man bought it on ebay, it has its own towing bracket and wind up wheels for towing behind lorry. It is aluminium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George94 Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Not dissimilar to boats we used in the Falklands skirmish. Are you sure about Russian origin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Payne Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 I like that! Pull up at a marina, back it in the cut and cruise away! Wonder how wide it is though!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Williamson 1955 Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Looks about 7 feet wide, but is very unlikely to be more than 8' 6" due to the rules on the roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mokjumbo Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Just did, they look funny! do they wobble much? It`s the most stable boat I`ve ever had.It has a cathedral hull,which is almost like a catamaran.Interior space is bigger than any other boat of it`s size.We absolutely love it.(It can also turn in it`s own length,so no need for winding holes).

Stilllearning Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 We were down in Harefield looking at Malvern, and noticed this boat parked up in the yard. Thanks for letting us know what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
