Well this one will no doubt be spending a lot of time moored outside various food establishments

That boat will be smaller than most of the tenders serving the mega yachts

'Marmite' Possibly one of the most famous 75 tourers produced! left the production line as the last of only Three Rover 75 tourers produced in Trophy Yellow. 48 hours later Longbridge closed. The last sold ordered 75 Tourer. Paid for by the Phoenix Four and handed over by John Towers to the Warwickshire Northampton Air ambulance service as a Rapid Response vehicle

Evening Mark.

She is five ft longer, one ft wider in the beam and about two ft taller air draft.

The main difference though is that she is a RCD category B vessel so good for proper sea crossings.

Category B - Offshore: Designed for offshore voyages where conditions up to, and including, wind force 8 and significant wave heights up to, and including, 4m may be experienced.

Two big Volvo Penta diesel lumps and a 560 litre fuel tank help
