A new bathtub, for 1966!

In 1966 a new holiday hire cruiser was launched.
Surrounded by traditional wooden craft emerged Frank Wilds "Caribbean" class of cruiser.
Over the next few years smaller and larger variants were added to match demand.

Despite scepticism from many Frank Wilds’ design was an instant success! High numbers were built to meet demand in their own hirefleet and also for other operators, across multiple waterways at home and abroad. By his retirement twelve years later over 500 craft had been produced.
