Hens teeth yeah! I managed to pick this one up recently. Nearly had a second battered one a couple of weeks ago, but the seller was offered some crazy amount for it before I had the chance to pick it up! I think that they are at a point were the people who have them are keeping them for the long run! Good Luck with your search! There's bound to be some hiding gathering dust somewhere... mine was used as a canal cruiser... hah
I missed out on one a few weeks ago on ebay, thought it was all sorted, and ready to pick up..gutted..I use a Nova that isn't that far off from the XXX..
@@alanhancox1358 Was it a one with a black bow by any chance? 🤣 Thé novas cool! They are similar when on a wave, the nova may be a little better at times ahha, and hell of a lot better down river!
yeah I messaged that guy! He said I could have it for £50 as he just wanted rid lmao! Text me back the day before I was to go down saying he’s been offers £300 or something. I know what you mean though there is something about the xxx that gives it a bit more of a heart to other boats. If you ever end up at the barrage, drop me a message, I’ll bring it down for y’a to have a play in. I’m down most weekend when there’s no water anyways. It’s always the the same case with selling boats like these you always find sometime when you’d want it back for hah. I sold a topo, and had another one the next month! 😅 I’ve seen a few orange ones around… all down south haha
I used to have one years back..I would love another, cant see any for sale these days!
