Looking for the original model / mould of an Italian Guardia di Finanza patrol boat

[bastrica]

Hello everyone,


This is my first post on the forum, so greetings to all of you.


I own a passenger boat in Montenegro which is currently used for tourist trips. The boat was originally built in Italy and was in service with the Guardia di Finanza around 1990. At some point it was purchased and converted into a tourist/passenger boat, and later we bought it and carried out further modifications ourselves.


I am now looking into the possibility of building another boat with the same hull/design.


I would really appreciate any help in identifying the original boat model, shipyard, designer, mould/tooling, plans, or any similar project that could help us reproduce the hull.


I have attached several photos of the boat.


If anyone recognizes the design or has any information about similar Italian Guardia di Finanza boats from that period, I would be very grateful for any information or leads.

The picture show next to nothing regarding the hull.

The photos are very poor regarding hull shape and the modifications are extensive, but judging by the transom angle it could have originally been a V4000 Drago, buildt by Italcraft and designed by Tony Levi.
If so the original dimensions would have been 13.1x3m with 2x350HP diesels. The GdF had 12 units, 8 of wich are said to have been given to Albania sometimes in the mid 90's.

Just a side note.
I don't see too many passenger safety features for the large number of persons you show on the boat.

What rules are she complying with - to be a passenger boat, as shown?

Pull the lines and copy the scantlings. With digital scanning is pretty straightforward.

With a GRP hull, it is impossible to copy the scantlings—unless you make the mistake of copying only dimensions and thicknesses.

Welcome to the forum, @bastrica.
I know it isn't the boat shown in the photos, but the photos don't reveal what the hull is like, either. I have the complete conceptual design for this boat, which is quite similar in terms of the hull. If you're interested, please contact me.

Hello! I need you contact maybe email or phone number!
