Anyone want to buy a new big flybridge for stupid money?
      #1901531 - 20/06/2008 11:55

I am guessing this is BoatQuays bankrupt stock, but a new 2007 Mustang 43 flybridge for £150k!!!

I wish them luck selling it, even at that price...

You think it is really that bad?

I had a look at SIBS last year out of idle curiosity, and while it was a different layout it was quite well put together etc etc.

I'm sure it's well screwed together, but the layout is so non-European flybridge I think you'd never sell it on. If I wanted to sell that, I'd ship it to the US...

You might have a point there.

Lack of inside helm is a bit odd.

If you could knock a little more out of it you would have enough to build an inside helm position, not rocket science these days as everything is more or less fly by wire so more of a sparks job really. Plently of space to achieve a nice station in the saloon.

Isn't this the same philosophy designed into the Silverton in MBY last month??
Why have two if you have a hard top on the fly...

Funny enough many moons ago when I sold Silvertons for a very short while (dont ask) they were modified for the UK and had the down stairs helm fitted!

There will be a buyer out there for this boat, could be a cheap Med boat.

NB the silverton dealership was different to the current one and has no connection

It will never be a good looking boat, but would look much better without the bimini.
