Note - The Dover 2726T is a 212 metric horsepower marine engine rated “C” for “Professional” use and features a turbocharger and intercooler. (Often confused with leisure boats because the Sabre 255L was a 255 metric horsepower marine engine rated “L” for “Leisure” use.)

In the 1960s the most sought after power boat was undoubtedly the Fairey boat. From Sir Max Aitkin, Tommy Sopwith, Deborah Kerr, and Billy Cotton all owned at least one. Also, Sean Connery as James Bond had an attachment to Fairey boats in "From Russia With Love".
Fairey boats combine comfort with spacious accommodation; a renowned seaworthiness with handling qualities second to none; and performance, courtesy of the deep vee planing hull, such that the cruiser class of numerous Cowes-Torquay and London-Monte Carlo races were successfully campaigned by Fairey boats.
