Looks like an Ocke Mannerfelt hull. Walk-through console very similar to a design used on some Pascoe RIBs, and Cookee and Kitten might be interested in the design of the rear seat and A-frame.

Altogether a bit of a hybrid!

walk through is same as pascoe used on his vulture ventures, i also hope cookee would not be interested in the back seat mould... it is all very flimsey, i looked at buying this boat, it has been used as thruxton race experience day boat and i believe has a new powerhead now, however the rear seat was awfull, the bucket seats were mounted on hideous metal boxing, the throttle is stuck on a bit of wood and looking behind the scenes revealed the real build/rigging quality.

I believe that Pascoe International has th rights to manufacture that boat with inboards and Presige now ribeye had the rights to manufacture them with Outboards.

Saw one of those at Drivers Wharf - it was put together by a 5 year old I think - galvanised self tappers to hold the "screen" in and fitted together whith not quite enough sikaflex to cover up the gaps!
