+65 ft Hull and Superstructure

Hello everybody
I am a Belgian guy with a dream. I would like to finish a polyester Motoryacht hull (in the style of Fairline, Princess, Sunseeker) or a polyester Sailboat hull (like Janneau)and this at least with a length of 65ft.

I have already experience in finishing yachts. and now I would like to start to search for a hull to make my dream come true.

I am looking for companies that can supply me with a polyester hull and superstructure to finish. (in fact Colvic Craft / Sunquest like companies but for bigger yachts)

Thanks.
JD

Not being funny, I am relatively high up the ladder in sunseeker and even I can't get a bear hull. Dispite over seeing most of the design/construction of them. Anyway the point I wish to make is that few companies will allow someone to use their hulls to fit out as they wish due to the possibility of them danaging their image.

Well to be honest, you're not funny at all! I didn't say I wanted a Sunseeker! I wrote "...like..." as "...in the style of...

I know why I don't want a Sunseeker. Many Manhattans are for sale again after their first season. This should say somthing about image??

I am very experienced. I am a marine engineer. I'am also doing expertises.
I even drove a lot with Manhattans. I know what I'm talking about.

BTW: I found some great builders in Italy, who are willing to work with me! The first hull (98 feet) will be delivered end of this year!

I rest my case!
JD
