new sportsfisher

i have attached i new deck and flybridge design , on a john bennet hull thinking of building the boat , all opinions welcome

 

Please tell us more about who you are. Can we assume you are on the east coast near Maldon in Essex, River Blackwater? Are you working with John Bennett & Associates Ltd., 143, Hythe Hill, Colchester, Essex, CO1 2NF.

The picture of the 36' Sedan is intriguing. How is it powered, outboard or sterndrive? Will you be producing a series run?

Regards,

Pericles

Hello Jon,

Thanks for the information and congratulations on your progress. Have you seen the JetPac? It could be a good option for you to offer.

It's available in the UK from Fleetwater Marine and Guillermo who posts here is the distributor in Spain.

Holy mackerel!

Pericles,
Why aren't they selling these to flats boat buyers?? Genius! Outboards are overpriced for their performance and double+ the depth needed to run. Since the "JetPac" has positive buoyancy, perhaps I could just put a horse saddle on one and ride into the sunset?
