They look similar, I just have cutted off part of cuddy, for more room for anglers, but those two boats looks the same.... :?

Its definately a shetland which type i'm not sure but if you look up the shetland website you can make a judgement. the cuddy has been shortend on it to make more space on the deck.

I own a Shetland boat (Family 4) All shetland boats have a gull wing shaped hull
so it couldn't be a shetland boat. It is a Mayland boat :wink:

Ok then, but still can't find model... Maybe boat is too old and it's hard to find it. I checked all websites in Ireland and England - nothing, I send sms to people who are selling those boats, but they don't know either. Unfortenately, can't contact him .. http://www.findafishingboat.com/mayland/DB31574, have no contact details :?
Thanks :!:

Sorry my web or site connection must be wired up :evil:
I was trying to say that - I stand corrected :!: Shetland boats didn't all have a gull wing hull. (Alaska 500 & 600)

Im sure its a mayland boat, but its similar to the shetland alaska 500 that has a displacement of 450kg.
Check www.shetlandowners.co.uk and look at the boat spec section.
