Of all the boats at the rally, the Hawk was the biggest, fastest, best thought out and most suited to knockabout costal day cruising… She is arguably the Rolls Royce of day-boats in terms of design, construction, fittings and performance, and justifies her price with her quality… She is a delightful boat to handle. All the gear is very powerful and easily handled and the helm is well balanced. She showed a clean pair of heels to all the other boats.”
