in what way will this be different from a Baycruiser 20 and what advantages would it have - cost and weight?

Hi Bill,
I had found that above sentence somewhat hidden in the news section, in the message about Beale Park Show. I am sure there will be a lot of questions regarding this new boat as it has not even been seen before in the 'On the drawing board' section.
Probably not up to me to answer your questions.
What I heard in the meantime is that this will be a boat in the same bracket as the Drascombe Coaster, and will be priced likewise, with waterballast BTW. Enjoy.

Many thanks.Have now found the Beale Park reference which explains where the quote came from and who the 'we' in 'we will be on hand to discuss our latest design' is! Will  try to get there as the design might just hit the spot for what I am looking for.

Best wishes

For anyone interested in the BayRaider Expedition, there are nice drawings of it in this month's editions of Watercraft and Practical Boat Owner.

Re- BayRaider Expedition.

Thanks for the link, Ian. Now even more inclined to take a hammer to my Piggy Bank.

Any offers for "Four Sisters" ? (Har, Har!)
