I'd say that's a Madera 12.5m rib and it probably weighs about 8 tonnes fully fuelled.

Look closely at boat name and location- Jersey based, maybe over at Hamble for refit ( well spotted zippy)

Yes, it must be the same boat. It appears to now have better seating and radar.

I think you mean Kyran Bracken's parents.
And if you're going to namedrop, you shouldn't forget Derek Warwick who's just around the corner, Alan Whicker just over the hill and of course Mr & Mrs Erin just up the road  .
