Does anyone know anything about new swifts under construction? Apparently they are being made by a firm called Boats4fun. They have acquired the moulds and are currently fettling them for production and are filing for RCD certification.
Looks like they are serious! I wonder what the price will be.

Swift 18 Trailer Sailor Image
Boats4fun have recently taken possession of the production moulds for the Swift 18 Trailer Sailor, the moulds are currently being re-furbished ready for building the first boat for RCD certification.
The "new" Swift 18 will be similar in layout to those previously built by Swiftcraft and Honnor Marine but the boat will be built with cruising in mind rather than its original target audience of Micro Cup racers.
Where possible all materials and components will be sourced from UK manufacturers.
There is an active association for these boats, details, photos and much technical information can be found at www.swift18.org
