Here's another boat i bought a little while back, this photo was taken in her original home of Germany. Built on the banks of the Ems near Pappenburg. I had this picture from the builder before i actually bought the boat. She's 125cms with a hand made twin cylinder oscillator engine with a reversing gearbox and a nice gas fired boiler.

Cat looks happy too  

Sooner or later i'll have some pics of her sailing.
