Didn't Graham Eeles work with the Topper/White formula team building Isos Buzzes etc? Would explain the Tornado connection - is he using the Reg White moulds?

As far as I am aware, his own design / molds. He has been making snuffers for Ts for a long time now and is one of the most popular snuffer designs....... Before building the boat he became a house hold name on the T scene. |

Boat is out of new molds. Also, I was speaking to people at the weekend abd the boat is going to be CONSIDERABLY cheaper than a Marstrom. Someone was saying 14K (GBP) for the boat which sounds awfully cheap considering a Marstrom is 20+ IIRC. |

Hi there, Graham Eeles here........ To be clear.......the design, moulds and manufacturing process are all new. Currently under test in sunny Palma and it's enough to say at this point that I'm very pleased with how it's going. Watch this space............. |
