to clear a little confusion , the spear has a fully enclosed wheelhouse with entry through a door onto the rear well deck , ( white cabin on my profile pic ) while the spearfish has an open cockpit , both vessels were made from grp from the original huntsman 31 moulds

Quite right Jon, and Mersey Ferry did ask for info on the Spear in his OP not the spearfish.
I just hope he has not ripped the wheelhouse off before reading your post.

Hi Merseyferry, If you scroll down to the bottom of the link given below you will find a a couple of the original  Fairey brochures presented as pdf files. One is for the Spear Mk. 1 and the other is for the Spear Mk. 2. Both contain info and some line drawings of each boat  design showing differences.
