Thanks for the replies. Have begun to price up a new 6.5 with Roy @ Osprey and dont really have the time, space or ability to fit out myself hence considering late secondhand already done and finished.
Will pm as suggested
cheers

Yeah, you bought the boat when I was 230 miles into a 400 mile trip to view it after having contacted Peter Kay two weeks ago! If you knew that, then you're no better than him. 'What happened to first refusal'? Pretty shoddy in my book. I will now commision a new boat in colours suitable for a Vipermax rather than a flume ride.

Blimey Mollers thats a bit harsh !! I find out about a boat for sale on a friday and view and buy it the next day. The seller did mention other interest/enquiries but dont most people when they are trying to sell something ?
Sorry the colours are not your cup of T but i have to say i like them.
Good luck with your new build.
cheers

If that's 100% true, I'll put down to Mr. Kay's selling practices being less than fair and decent.
