Re-surfaced Driver
One that has escaped the bonfire by the looks of it.It was the batboat of it`s day winning 5 races in 1966 in the largest CIII division,powered by 2 x 100hp mercs.Driven by Ian Driver and navigated by Brian Hendicott.Two heavies if ever there were.Was renamed Knutkrakker in 1969.Get back to putting that other engine in ASAP Mr F.Who is I.Driver indeed!!!Good job he won`t be scrutineering the plastic fantastic before you set sail.

They've both been in, but are taking a holiday from the engine bay whilst the mounts are being powder coated, and we wait to see if Barrus can achieve the impossible and deliver the new Merc ITS transom assy's and XR drives we ordered and paid for 3 months ago! Ferkin useless W**k**s!
rear motor, and front.

That would have been the old IIIE class (2*100) recall the others as IIID(125-140) IIIC (100) IIIB (80) IIIA (65-70)
E became D
D&C merged to form C
B stayed as it was
and A was removed

Other Driver Boats
A couple of other Driver created and driven boats.Hope someone`s standing on TBC`s chain Mr.Blu Fin ,otherwise he would be ravaging you, if excuse the expression.Screwdriver was driven by Robin Bateman and ,a Souter boat and of the TBC era.
