"Tickety Boo"

20 ft Pompie


"FHBoats 30"


"Miss Marguerite"

"Miss APBA"

Not a lot to say about this vessel or any of Mr Hacker's other designs than "exceptional". We can't think of a single design of his we don't like. Miss APBA is a sleek thoroghbred and bigger sister to Rosita. She is just begging to be built using today's modern methods and materials. Designed to win the 1928 American Power Boat Association Gold Cup and to turn heads wherever she ran Miss APBA is our next new build. If you think we are excited about this project just imagine how our client Peter Cavill feels. He has waited patiently while we talked boats, likely costs and time frame for construction. Almost a year since we met and went for a blast in Rosita on the Derwent River, Tasmaina has he made the decision to entrust us as builders of his new gentlemans racer. We all live in exciting times.
