Interesting "old school" I found
 

Ran across this for sale at the local police department...

...thought it looked "interesting"

A few more

Power... Says Ford on the valve covers....

BTW the sign says "make offer"

It's clearly a Planatec 40'-Shead design with the deck modified.
Maybe the former Ballerina-Macho....

Isn't the Prince of Dubai one of the richest people in the world?

I remember seeing that boat (or one just like it) sitting in Bayonne NJ about 5 years ago at an auto body shop.

I was thinkin' it may have a history of some sort.......

The pictures don't do it justice, it's friggin HUGE. :cool-smiley-011:

That would be a bomb to re-do. I like the diesel outfit and the jets both.

He probably is. But I'm not sure about the Prince of Daubai....

Marco I think you're right - looks very much like a Shead hull.

Looks to have been a tad neglected in recent times - shame. Would make a great boat if it could be readied in time for the Round Britain next year.

Any of you guys see the Mythbusters show where the demolished an old offshore boat? I just caught a bit on the donzi web site... What was it? Looked to have some similar lines.
