It looks pretty much identical to a Jeanneau Cap Camarat.

Very good little sea boats. Built in Cyprus and have good hull with good onboard accomodation for their size. I have done a few courses on them and they are very impressive boats. Importers are based in Poole.

Chris, went out in the 2050 down at poole 6 months ago,it had the Suzuki 175 on its back,, it was a typically great day for wavejumping, but was not allowed to take it further than the Chainferry at sandbanks, i asked the reason, yep, you guessed it, it would not cope and was not advisable, it suprisingly was a very wet ride, also a harsh ride/noisy inside,the chap who came out with me winced a few times as it came crashing down but as a calm water family type craft, they look superb!!storage space everywhere, good fixtures and fittings with real weekender capabilty there was a sea trial in one of the mags but as they mostly done in totally calm conditions ,with out any doubt inside the fitout is far superior than the Jeanneau 545 ,625 cat camarat's,
the importers (yellow penguin)have a demo 2050 on the water!!

What about a windy 28???
