Hi. We are the current owners of Apple Of My Eye the boat mentioned by andeberg and like him we cannot find any faults at all with the design and build quality, even things like the paintwork are still looking good on our 10 year old boat. Like you we did have some initial worry's over not being able to find much information about V&G, as a internet expert i did a lot of googling and found they closed in 2009 about the same time the price of steel went up, this from what I can see this also took out a number of other boat makers so can be excused. What we did find was a few of their other boats on apollo duck similar size and layout and all in good spec, seeing these other boats put our mind at rest a lot allowing us to put in an offer and go through with the survey and eventual purchase. here is the sale video of when we bought her last year https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmvzamgEw0E , you can also see many pictures of her on our blog http://widebeamlife.com
