    This is a painful Broward to look at. It started life as "I Lorraine" before that abomination up top was welded on...

    Not all rogues are old. This new 95' Sunseeker looks like a collage of bad design elements...

    Pic two is the Acadia 85 that was supposed to set the world on fire a few yrs. ago with "new technology" It has 5 or 6 kw worth of photovoltaic cells in the coach top and can run all systems from inverters except of course the air conditioning. The entire salon and wheel house overheads are glass photo cells. Difficult to cool the boat so the builder has a U.S. specification that calls for a chiller in the 200,000 BTU range. The barge that the 85 will have to tow behind it carrying the needed batteries for AC is optional...

    I'm not completely opposed to change, such as the cab-forward designs of late but IMO, ISA has taken this too far...

    Here's a new model that the builder is exceptionally proud of. Looks like an Aqua Panda.

    Yes, that is an aviary on top, not a sunroom

    Vancouver has a big group of people who try to live cheap in a very expensive city by living on crappy boats anchored either in the nice, protected area in the middle of the city (False Creek) or in the less protected waters of English Bay (just off of Kits Point/Beach).

    Some of them resort to interesting add-ons to increase their living space e.g. this Cal 25 with a more permanent pop-top:

    This guy decided to go for a much larger living space:

    I think this thing is worse than a carver mariner...

    I think the color on that sportfish might be called "teal"? Here's another splash of color for the rogues thread...
