Feel free to ask your own question at the bottom of this page...
| 1. Why buy a heavy displacement yacht? Doesn't it mean it will be slow? |
Heavy displacement yachts make the best cruising yachts. The displacement makes them more stable and also means they keep on tracking when the sea state gets a little lively. Lighter yachts will start to slam and yaw slowing them down. What matters is speed accross the ground. Our yachts track well and point high to windward ensuring you arrive in good time. |
| 2. Does one have to agree the full specification on placement of an order? |
No. There are certain items that have to be specified at the outset but others can be added during the build process. Most customers have a very good idea of what they are after and we tend to agree most items at the beginning. |
| 3. What is the build time for a new yacht? |
One of the benefits of ordering your new yacht with us is the degree of flexibility in specification we can accommodate - so to a large extent the delivery time will be dependant on you and your requirements! On average you can expect a boat to be finished six to eight months from the start date. |
| 4. Can one reserve a build slot? |
Yes. A £1000 deposit can be made to secure a build slot. On receipt of a deposit we would then start the process of agreeing an initial specification and a contract for building of a new vessel. |
| 5. Is there an owners club? |
Rustler has a very active owners club. They have their own web site at www.rustler36.net. There is also a Sadler & Starlight owners club at www.sadlerandstarlight.co.uk. There is no Bowman club at present but we will be working on that shortly. |
| 6. Whats the point on buying one of your yachts when I dont intend to go around the world? |
It's really about quality. Quality of design, and quality of build. The designs will keep you safe at sea, the way we build them will make you proud to be an owner. Because of this our yachts are sought-after and retain their value well. |
| 7. How much can I expect to get for my yacht in 10 to 15 years time if I buy from new? |
Some yachts that are being sold second hand are fetching more than they were originally bought for. |
| 8. What kind of back up service can I expect to get? |
We pride ourselves on the personal relationship we build with each customer and the service that we offer. Our premises in Falmouth are state of the art. We have winter lay up facilities for up to 200 yachts and a 40 tonne slipway hoist. |
