    This thing lurks around my marina, it s even worst in the flesh… or in the aluminum or in the whatever it is made of. Couple of days ago it had a blue canvas (or tarp) enclosure around the stern section.

    This monstrosity just pulled up at Norman’s. Horizon UHV…. Note the “I m not sure whether I already cleared” flags displayed :)

    All she needs is a sail and replacement of the green with more gray or white and ready for a big flood. :eek:

    That looks like an out-house boat with a rolled up foamie for a dolphin. What happens when you flush?

    Yep, FPB possibly the 80. My mate Pete bought a 64' & a 78'
    in New Zealand and sailed it back to Guernsey, UK.

    I kind of don't dislike it... it's hard to call it a "rogue" or "ugly" when it's built to suit a purpose.

    True, it would be a nice boat without the "Flybridge".

    That's an FPB 64. The first FPB that the Dashews built for themselves is now labelled the FPB 83, for sale through Berthon for US$4 million. The biggest giveaway that it's not the 83 is that there are no hull windows.

    Rogue may be a bit harsh, but to quote a French saying… come un cheveu sur la soupe. I guess someone really wanted an enclosed pilot house :)

    These darn UHV just don’t do it for me… yeah, lots of space and lavish accommodations but ….

    No idea who built this monstrosity but … let me find a Hinckley or Vicem picture to flush my eyes….

    Ok. Saw this moored in Lake Union (Seattle) today. While it’s huge and impressive, those lines and windows. Ugh. I see it was posted back in 2019... but ****... it deserves to be posted again. from this rear angle is just really looks so strange. Those windows, those curves.
