    It's pretty nice that they space the yachts out enough to actually be able to see the sides. At FLIBS they're packed in so tight that as a mere spectator you don't get much of an idea what anything looks like except for the transom.

    I guess that is the price you pay for having so many large yachts tightly packed in to one area.

    As a note, i've uploaded an album of Sealine photos from Southampton show, as promised. They can be found here:

    Elegance yachts is part of Drettmann which is Bremens third yacht builder, they built in a range from 48' to 160' feet, the yachts are built in Taiwan. On their homepage is a video about the building process of one of their yachts.

    Sorry for the delay in posting Jon. Absolutely slammed this week. I need help and it's not mental! Sure, the RD 82 is a surprise. Would like to know more, so put it up for discussion. When the thread cools, I'll merge with the RD forums. Thanx!

    Sorry so short. End to another 15 hour day. My head and my bed are about to become one in the same.

    I believe Elegance Yachts are sold in the US and other parts of the world as Horizon Yachts.
