Three out of those five colour choices are "grey" and the other two are rather dull shades as well... (wonder who's doing the building? Anyone care to tell?) Edited by alstorer - 19 Nov 12 at 6:25pm |

Extra £200 to have a choice of 4 colours?
That's hardly custom is it? Winder only want £120 extra for a 2 colour hull, trouble is I can't afford the rest of it! |

Oh dear. The first thing I thought looking at that was eeek! That's a pretty cluttered/ugly looking advert there! I guess they're hoping that all the weird colours and little plus thingies will stop people looking at it too long and noticing how unremarkable the offer actually is.

But if you can get a 300 built without needing 4 mates, that has to be a good thing? Maybe this is what the classes need for a fresh start.

But as the thread in 'Banter' shows, some people cannot be trusted with free choice. You have to consider us lower mortals who buy used boats. We don't want lemon yellow, toilet blue, sickly pink or beige. But something other than waterboard grey wouldbe nice! |

I would guess (and it is just a guess) that they are being built on the Isle of Wight.
