    "Prime Time" Paul Mann Custom Boats

    Needless to say without the boat.."Prime Time" which is a 56' Paul Mann..the platform and fish raisn' of this superb Carolina built boat rounds out the setting for the "Masher" and the "St. Thomas Swimmer.

    Paul Mann, builds a first class boat chosen by many for tournament duty. Just check out the records and the 56'.

    The 56':

    Custom only, like our products. No production line stuff here folks.

    My take: this is a fine custom sportfish with huge cockpit which I am a huge fan of...too many custom boats sacrafice cockpit space for the house and accomodations. Paul Mann does both..the best of both worlds!

    I like his boats, except for Ann Warwick. Its Architecturally incorrect. It just doesnt have the fine balance of dimension of his other boats. As you add length like that boat it just misses on a balance scale for me. JMO...........plus, I hate the color. But I do love the boats! They are beautiful.

    Well, Hubris as you point out..it's just U..balance and cockpit space..never are a problem with a great designer and builder like Paul Mann.

    Dont get me wrong,

    I think they are Beautiful boats, and I wish I could buy one. If I could, I wouldnt buy the biggest,......just the most beautiful. Its all in the lines like a beautiful home. Architecture is everything. Balance, Design......The boat has it all, I just didnt like the biggest to date. [I think it was] But, I do have to say, Robin Mann looks perfect.

    Hubris,

    no offense, stick to what you do. A sportfish/yacht design critique' just isn't in your repertoire. Spare us the mushie mouth diddly find another thread..ok?

    Trying to draw architecture into yacht design is like..well..im lost for words...

    No offense man, you just are over your head on this.

    He's Right.....

    There is somthing a bit off with the overall architecture.....

    just kiddin..... they're sweet boats no doubt, but even if I had the paper I wouldn't buy one....I run a 27 world cat....cost under 60k, cruises in the 35 range and costs me around 200 for a full day of fishing...Sure I can't fish in 6-8....but seriously who the hell wants to when you can flounder fish in the am, go home....maybe crawl back in bed and get lucky, then either wakeboard or kite surf, then lay on the beach and maybe hit seacret around 3....I doubt that paul mann can get into seacrets....

    Then againI don't billfish.....never saw the point....can't eat them and the fight doesn't compare to a tuna..... just my opinion
