Copper Slipper has been fully restored and refurbished to create a stunning, unique Greyhound slipper launch. Her timbers have been fully restored and treated with 16 coats of Awlwood varnish, polished to a deep lustrous shine.
The hull has been painted in Oxford blue finished with copper flecks. Her bilge is painted in lustrous copper. She seats eight people comfortably on cashmere marine leather-upholstered seating with Oxford blue piping and copper laser-etching.
Her unique features include a fully marinised 1960s’ Daimler 2.5 litre V8 petrol engine, triple copper-plated fittings, custom-made Smiths cream dials with copper numerals and bezels, custom-made copper-plated switch panel with the functions laser-engraved, new stainless steel twin exhausts fitted with CNC machined stainless steel finish and ceramic coating in a copper finish. All the copper fittings are installed using triple copper-plated brass screws, individually plated.
New additions include two removable Bang & Olufsen waterproof Bluetooth speakers controlled by the B&O phone app, two dual-charging points with USB for phone/tablet and speakers, recessed ambient lighting to illuminate the cockpit, security tracker monitored by a phone app.
