In true, time honoured PH tradition, could I be the first to suggest...

Wild guess, not that I'm an expert or anything, I reckon it sank.

. Using your expert opinion, what happend to the Titanic ?

I suspect like most people who own these things, his credit limit probably outweighed his mental capacity

[Lord Flathead]

Looks like Jaws has had a go at it

i reckon it was hit in transport, on the back (of fell off) a lorry. Hence it is on Bluecycle.

It is reperable (anything is) and a Pearl 60 would be what, a £750k new?

THIS BOAT COST ?1.2 MILLION WHEN NEW,THE BOAT HAS SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO THE LOWER HULL

Don't know what the question mark is doing to the pound at the moment like.

That's a lot of money!

I could be wrong but there was a pic recently of a boat very much like that having fallen from the crane that was moving it

[Wigeon Incognito]

That wouldn't make a bad static home, shame I'm not a traveller.

[Junior Bianno]

Falling off the back of a lorry doesn't explain the sorry state of the interior. The woodwork in the twin cabin looks like it's from a 20 year old boat, not one that's been around for 3 years. Something else going on there I reckon...

[Rocksteadyeddie]

At £26 grand that looks an absolute steal. Suspect some boaty person will pick that up and make a killing.

Sorry, but that is a really stupid statement... (especially so as you cant even spell repairable ) The fact that its at a salvage auction tells you the insurance assessor thinks it most definitely isn't repairable.

[Sea-Doo]

Rubbish, I bet it'll be back on the water within 18 months and yes anything is repairable. The assessor beleives it is 'beyond economic repair'

Anyone hazard a guess at how much for a new bare shell from Pearl?

Got to be £200K

Like all the "repairable salvage" cars they sell, you mean?

It will be repaired. What do you think they will do with it? Strangely enough, people buying 60 ft motor yachts dont tend to buy second hand parts for them from "the breakers".

I'm sure some boat builder could get some moulds made off another one if they had access to it.

100 rolls of gaffer tape, that's what you need. If it doesn't work you haven't used enough.

[Rocksteadyeddie]

Couldn't find the boat that got dropped, but found this instead
