It all started...

when I saw this advert for a salcombe flyer. We already owned a 13' dory with a 20hp engine which was great fun, but... it wasn't exactly a salcombe flyer 530 !

The salcombe flyer had already been spotted as a great family boat that would be a great all rounder: family picnics, fishing, skiing - ideal.

Following a new engine, a deal was agreed and the dory went up for sale.


A bit about the flyer: "Originally designed by the former British off-shore powerboat racing champion Gary Appleyard, the Salcombe Flyer range provides an exciting and varied portfolio of quality sports boats. Built in Kingsbridge near Salcombe in South Devon using only quality materials and fittings, every boat is produced to the highest possible standard."
