Notes:
vds#146.
Said to be an extended version of the PIONEER 9.
Some were built by Tyler Boat Co. Ltd. (UK). Some other hulls were built by Polyboot Netherlands and finished by Esslinger & Abt, Laupheim, Germany. Esslinger & Abt declared insolvency in 1985.
Thanks to Jan Derks for providing corrected information and who commented, "...the yacht had a (then) revolutionary trim tab on the trailing edge of the fin keel... H 1001 "Aladdin" was van de Stadt's personal yacht for a while."
Thanks also to 'Christopher' for supplying information on the German built boats.
