An odd place to find an odd boat but worth a look at all the same. www.rmweb2.co.uk under Wheeltappers and shunters then Mystery ship.

 ??? I couldn't find anything to do with a mystery ship or wheeltappers.

Daryl, try typing Mystery Ship into the site search facility. It's certainly an odd looking craft.

[Daryl]

Thanks i've found it. Does look a bit odd, I tend to agree with the conclusions at the bottom of the thread, a publicity stunt.

I will go along with the publicity stunt but it is one hell of an expensive one if it is. The mid section looks awfully like a narrowboat hull that has just been bolted on to me.

Probably another of Richard Branson's record breaking stunts.  Around the world or from A to B in the fastest possible time.           Looks as if the pontoons are fitted with shock absorbers.  It could also be a seaplane minus it's wings and engines.

We'll all be crossing the Channel in things like that in twenty years time, or my name ain't H G Wells.
