Is this a Manta ??? 5Fri 22 May 2020 08:58:39
Mike-B Mike-B Wed 05 Feb 2020 10:48:16 Hello everybody,
A few weeks ago I acquired this little boat and set about trying find out what she was. The closest ive come to is the manta BUT there are some big differences.

My boat does have a round forward hatch and the Manta is currently the only other boat I have found that also has this.

My boat has a bilge keel and a offset companion way hatch like the Leisure 18. Somebody did say I could be a prototype so I thought I would ask on here.

Thanks in advance

Mike

Mark Mark Wed 05 Feb 2020 12:57:26 It's not a Manta but I don't know what it is. If you have the dimensions then you might be able to find it is here: https://sailboatdata.com/ use the 'refine search' option to enter the beam, length etc.. and hopefully you'll find a match.

If you do find out, let us know what it is wink
Mark Mark Wed 11 Mar 2020 09:23:34 Just had a thought. Do you have the sails? The main sail might have an emblem on it and that might be a good clue as to what it is.
Manta's mainsails have a symbol like the photo below. If you have a look at the brochure pages you'll see where it is on the mains sail.

Mark Mark Fri 22 May 2020 08:58:39 I came across this picture which looks very similar on top as your boat. Not sure about the keel though. http://www.shortypen.com/?boat=153&d=-Fantasie-20---Fantasie-630

So could it be a Fantasie 20/630 :?
