This may be old hat to the Triton experts. I knew there was a French model but never saw a picture of one.
Few will agree with me, but I kind of like the windows.
No idea how many were built, but it was included in one of their earliest brochures.

Re: Triton built by Jouet & Cie - (1965?)
THANK YOU!
I have tried for years to identify this boat.
I saw one in Rhodes, in 1993 and it was strange and really familiar at the same time. I knew that I knew the boat... now I know.
THanks!

Re: Triton built by Jouet & Cie - (1965?)
I figured it wouldn't be exactly a revelation to all you Triton experts.
After looking at some of your links, ... well, the windows DO look a little strange. That forward 'windshield' type one looks the same as the one they used on the Tiburon. Did Pearson ship them a mold, or did they make their own?

The wrap around "windshield" looks a bit creepy. Dare I say it... a bit MacGregor-like.

Here's a Tibiron. Looks like the same 'windshield'.
