    Is she another Ian McLeod from Kyle design.
    yes it is
    Hope this never steams past my wee boaty , reckon the rogue wave might sink me!!! surley it'll be getting a bulbous bow? or have the owners got shares in southern fuels.  ;)
    does look to have the water cutting qualities of a brick at the minute like!
    is the big prop and gearbox the only thing done to save fuel or has anything been done with the hull design?

    Ah Grasshopper it is wise to not always judge a book by its cover,the word on the east coast is the Willing Lad is as good a towing and sea boat as any of the other new ones its size.
