Delta Sigma / Sabre Knight

Post by Firefly »

I see there is a you tube video of the boat operating on Windermere. Nice to see it back in use

I thought Windermere had a 10 knot speed limit imposed in 2005. How old is the video?

Tim, I think you'll find the owner has had a 'telling off', perhaps more than once.

I think any Fairey "offshore" powerboat is wasted on the Lakes. Furthermore I can't see the local inclement weather doing her any favours either.
We all know that one of the inherent downsides is water ingress through the deck into the topsides. One of the wettest places in the UK.

Windermere 10 mph / 6 mph in tight sections, Tim...
