MBY - T58

Interesting article on the evolution of the design. A few observations:

It looks like they have finally listened to jfm about the cleats on the transom. Bet they remove the lower set before hull 1 is released, tho'.

I was fascinated and impressed to read the rationale for steps between models and duly noted the official F/L branding line which grated a bit with Hugo's editorial trumpetings about the need for brand to follow iconic design.

Why are the front seats in my Range Rover so much better than the driver's seat in this boat costing ten times as much? It was a bit woeful to see a mock up with David Marsh having to reach for the controls in a way which none of us would accept in our cars and which would have me in traction within the week.

Did David Marsh get a thesaurus for his birthday? - The first couple of para's are enough to fill in a complete boardroom bingo card - "synergised", forsooth.

I think that this boat is going to be a real winner overall, despite my dislike of the mansard-y crew cave window and I thought the passerelle cum swim ladder was especially neat!
