Hi chogg

Welcome to the forum.

I couldn't tell you which make it is I'm afraid but I have managed to straighten up your photo :)

First thoughts were, it's a one off build and with a single 200hp diesel it should go well.

Is there been a hull number on it, if so the number can sometimes reveal the manufacturer

Looks a bit like a Sea Ray

Can you give us any more inf, length etc. Also a pic of the helm area might help. Are there any logos on the wheel or elsewhere? Also sometimes on the fuse and switch panel there may be a makers plate.

Looks like a Falcon 23 possibly SPC. The Falcon 27 was twin engined. However a few 27's were re-engined with a single for inland /canal waters. If it came from anywhere near the Norfolk Broads that's likely. Built most likely mid to late 80's
