Looking for Ring 20 - The Buzz

Does anyone here know of a Ring 20 called the Buzz? It used to be white hull with XR2. Let me know and see you at the worlds in sunny hunny. We are the photographers there

Cheers

Jski

Howdy,

I used to race behind that boat and also raced it OCR. had many good seasons with it competing in the UK and in Italy etc and as I am going to be in the UK as the worlds photographer http://www.memoriesink.net I was hoping it may be close enough to go visit. Who knows, if the price is right it may even come home with me. It is a treasured part of my life.

Thanks for the response

Jski

Buzz was owned by a guy called Patrick Carter who lives in Shepton Mallet. He is a member of the Lyme Regis Powerboat Club. He sold the boat about eighteen months ago, I will find out who to, will not see him until bank holiday weekend as I am racing this weekend, I do know where one part of the original is.
The gear box is in pieces in my garage after it blew up !!!!!!!

Thanks guys..I appreciate the info: That boat used to be fantastic and I have not enjoyed a race boat as much as that since.

I look forward to finding out where it is now and would love to see The BUzz again
