I agree about the scrolling, only get half a page actually on the screen.
I like web sites that check your browser settings and adjust accordingly.

Works fine for me on IE7.
I do think Westline have let you down with the photos though Jez.
Calling a spade a spade, those photos are probably the worst set of pics ever put out by a luxury product manufacturer. Eg on the W34 set, the girls on the foredeck look freezing cold, one of the faces is cut off in the picnic ashore shot, the (W24) loo looks like it has no headroom, there are two cheap non matching bottles of Lidl soap just sitting there in the shower, lots of industrial landscape in the background, etc. Surely Westline can hire a decent photographer to get some decent pictures? It all feels a bit downmarket and cheap. Not wishing to rain on parades here, just giving you candid feedback :-)

You appear to be right, but I hadn't noticed! I was looking at the boat in all the pics! After all that what they're trying to sell!

You might want to put MBM on the write and SB&R on their write up - you've got both mags credited against both at the mo.
Link to the Manufacturers Web-site perhaps?
Tell Nautical if he doesn't put a link to your boats you'll point your link at Azimut (but leave it called Ocean-Nautic)..
Can we have some layout pictures please, both above and below decks..
As said earlier, either rollover or previous/next/close on the photo enlargements..
Looks very good to mee.

Jez,
I have to agree, the publicity shots are very poor and remind me of the ones Falcon used to do in the 1990's. They made their boats look very un-appealing.
I think spending a couple of Łk on a decent photographer will really pay dividends in the long run!
Site a lot better though and feels more professional.
Cheers
Paul

If you click on the details of the used W24, bottom right are the 'Individual Boat Page' clicky links. All of those go back to the used W24 page, they don't take you to the spec of the boats as they do on other pages within the site. Personal opinion here as well but, that individual boat page should be higher up on the right alongside the W24 advert to save having to scroll down (there is the space by the looks of things).
I'd also agree with the other comments about the photos, some of them are a bit naff. Some of them take a dogs age to load up as well, but that could be my flakey work connection.
All I need to do now is stop looking at boats I can't afford....
