“Miss Louisa’

Aquafibre Centre Cockpit (Fixed Cabin) Models

Ideal 40:
One of my favourite designs as it was the first style we hired, back in 1989. It was introduced at the end of the 1970‘s as an extension to the Lancer Power Boat, and one of the most desirable craft at the time. Built in either 6 berth layouts (including tinted glass) or 8 berth, with an extra bunk cabin squeezed in the forward section.

Ideal 45:
Designed as an extension to the Ideal 40 to be able to offer up to 12 berths, and with a wider (12ft 6in) beam.
