Nigel M in my club is building Ramform Sovereign and we were amazed at the amount of stuff in the stern.
He displayed his build so far at Warwick and I don’t think he managed to escape for much else as everyone wanted to talk to him about it.

That lack of freeboard is slightly worrying! I'm sure those compartments are sealed off in bad weather but everything must rust to hell and it only takes an open door...

I just wonder if the Dredger that started all this off had creases in the plans on parts of the upper works?

I'm sure someone should have said the same thing to the designer of the Herald of Free Enterprise.
