Da beasty!! Reve D'O - Pro 7man with Suz DF50 hooked up to a 1.9dci Scenic. Taken at Cherbourg en route Alderny just before launching illegally!!

Nowadays we also carry the 2.6m sib on the roofrack, but that pic was taken three years ago!


Can't wait to post some pics of the new boat tho I dont think the scenci can tow it so I'll just have to mock it up!

Its an open and I've been aboard to marvel at the twin engine installation. I'm looking forward to seeing on the water and it's been years in the making. Even longer than Ian M's build

You can see it in the first photo sitting on the right.
