Classic Boat Magazine - Artemis

Post by A Gough »

There's a fantastic article in the May 2004 edition of Classic Boat about Paul Foulston's Huntress ARTEMIS. Makes great reading, both about the background to the origins of Fairey powerboats (curiously it looks remarkably like the information on our website!!!!) and about Paul's hard work and excellent results.

Well done Paul!! (And, I've never seen you look quite that smart before!)

Thank you Anne, thought all the website stuff was down to you particularly when your Swordsman advertisement follows the article. Hand of Gough or God.
I was concerned that the facts seemed to keep getting in the way of the story. I am not 6'4" nor have never hit 44 knots, what else is being inflated?

Thanks to everybody for a great 2003 season.
I have now pulled Artemis to bits all over again. New cabin top, window frames being re-chromed Awlgrip on cabin sides. New ZF80A gearbox with trolling valve is sitting on the floor. Stern thruster being built into stern ladder, oh and yet another new propeller, thats five in four years, I am determined to tame the beast!

Expect to see us in Miss Daisey or perhaps a Huntsman early in the year.

Paul,

Could you point me at details for your Huntress Stern Thruster as I am thinking of doing it to mine.
