Another great series of shots Neil.
I think I have to revise the 55' Princess in the other thread and replace it with a 55' Sunseeker instead as this is clearly a Sunseeker port. In my defense, they do look alike. |

I suddenly feel like driving down to the water for the weekend.
Thanks for sharing!

There are so many boats there, that I am amazed that anyone can tell what they all are. The Sunseekers looked really swish vessels One, however, clearly looked out of place . . . .

With Leo naming SunSeeker and Sea Ray boats, I wonder how much crossover there is from European boat manufacturing and American boat manufacturing.
I can only think of 1 European boat docked in New Jersey 20 years ago, however, it was in all likelyhood the nicest convertible sport fishing boat I ever saw. Fiberglass 65' hull built in France with twin Mercedes diesels called the "Canyon Lady". A truly one of a kind boat, it really turned heads. |

The only decent looking boat coming out of France, (back then) was the Guy Coach. |

For the life of me Leo, I can't remember, but it was definitely the nicest convertible sport fishing boat I've ever been on!

Raf, I had no idea it was yours!
I thought that the boat belonging to either yourself, or Leo, was out of the water, next to the JCB!!

Well, Raf, Leo could always raise the front bucket of his JCB from the seabed (in coastal waters) and sit there high and dry, whilst you desperately wrestle with the bilge pumps!!

Don't let him wind you up, Raf!
Even the most lumbering creatures on land are superb in the water. Look at the whales and walruses

Raf, you're a great sport!!
Of course, we have to think of the effect on shipping, in the event of any sudden, large displacement of water . . . .
