OK, but I'm afraid of the next 'Let's see...' thread which might follow.

hi buddy-the best thing to do is search and find out. the avon adventure is as welcome as a fart in a space suit for one reason or another.

to sum up though what people say-build quality is poor, fittings are poor, hull is thin and some have had cracking on gelcoat and the ride isn't very good either in anything but the flat.

i think that just about sums up the feelings on them.

cheers
