Hi all, I recently sold my 32 albamarle express that I used for charters in the summer. I'm about to go and check out this 40ft Novi this week it's a 1996 built by William Spinney boats limited. Was wondering if anybody had experience with them or any info about them?

Thanks guys! Her main use will be conch and lobster with the occasional canyon run in August.

You have a Ros too, huh...it wasn't that one that's been for sale with a Merc is it?

 

[Mvywheels]

If it's green with a 40 merc that's it, got it little over a year ago off cape. I'm in the process of over hauling it to a bay scalloper, got rid of the merc an put a 50 Yamaha 4stroke on.

I think that is best looking Novi I have ever seen. Have a pic of the whole thing from a distance? Where you keep on MVY?

 

[Mvywheels]

Thanks I'm almost 99.9% pos that ill seal the deal Friday but I'll take a better pic of her then for ya. And I'm out of vineyard haven.

Nice like the Ros but the novi is it

Wanna see dead on bow shot and what is she a 14 beam...?

 

[Mvywheels]

Will do on Friday an 15ft 5in is what the spec says with a 4ft 5in draft. She's perfect for what I want to use her for imo.
