That SR is a new designed hull ain't it.

Rouge wave and the rest will be able to tell you better than me. But I think the 4 to 5.4 meter models only had the flooding hull.

I had the pleasure of testing that boat and demoing it to all Avons customers for 4 days, great fun, It had twin Mariner 90 Opti's on it. And no it has not got a flooding hull. Its a Zodiac Hurricane hull!!

I thought the entire boat looked like a Hurricane. I suppose since Zodiac bought Avon, it's inevitable that they will "merge" the designs...
