Yeah, I know, I know......but it does seem odd enough to have a look see. Wonder if they attached the teak and holly flooring with 5200 marine epoxy, or what.

That is a 998cc earlier A series.

1275 would normally also have a crankcase vent in the Clutch housing..

Looks like an 1.5 carb on a 'cast' manifold == not a normal setup on a 1275...

I would wager its a 998.

It says 1275, did they make a 1275 with a straight heater take off ? I thought all 1275's had an angled heater take off?

No lack of craftsmanship there. Good to see another take on how to build one. Some good ideas on it.

Definitely one for the yacht club crowd, and priced accordingly.
