Flatacraft ???

Does anybody know the current status of Flatacraft as a company.

I'm preparing my Force 4 for sale now I've replaced it with an Ocean 6.25, and they appear to have vanished off the face of the earth!

Nasher.

Flatacraft

Dear Nasher,

As far as I am aware Flatacraft ceased trading a couple of years ago and Tony Lee Eliot was trying to sell the whole business but without success unfortunately (as far as I am aware).
Tony does write frequent articles for RIB International so you might find out more from there?
Hope this is of some help, Stevetheboat.



Knowledge is power, but enthusiasm pulls the switch.

Thanks for that, as you say its a shame considering their history.

I know Tony was trying to sell-up but understood he'd managed it.

Must say though, he wasn't making it easy, I seriously thought about it myself and tried several times to get an idea of what he wanted for the business, and to get more information, but only ever received short replies with no information that gave me the impression he didn't really want to sell.

I've been using the websites www.flatacraft.co.uk and www.flatacraft.com to tell the world about my Force 4 for the last 3 years, anyone have any use for them now I'm selling it?
