Info on boat wanted

Hi, insurance is one of the most angsted-about topics on this site! The search function should pull up some of the previous threads as background for you - a couple of things that I think might help are:

 

- the marine specialists (a couple advertising on this site plus others mentioned in the previous threads) might have a greater level of confidence and comfort without obsessing too much about make and model (which seems to me to be only a way of filling out a space on a form and defining their risk in the absence of other info?). Surely at that value, a bit of realism can prevail

 

- swing moorings add a level of difficulty and it seems no-one is falling over themselves to acquire new customers in that category.

One might be forgiven for thinking Clarke 7.7, as the cabin has those lines for sure. Definitely some similarities.

 

But the Palace has a hard, very hard, chine, and a flat bottom. In fact, she'd almost be called a sharpie in the US. This boat seems to have a bit more hull shape. Also the bow sections here seem to have a certain amount of hollow in them.

Yep its a struggle trying to find someone who wants to insure a boat on a swing mooring now and no insurance no being able to put your boat on the hardstand.

Quite right, I walked past CP today and the hull shape is as you describe. Never noticed that before. 30 years ago the owner of CP wanted to trade it on a Stratus 747 that I was selling.....

 

Anywho back on track, the more I look at that boat, the more I see wagstaff lines, harmonic varitive?

does look suspiciously like a Frisbee with a new lid, bow rake and transom certainly indicate such
