know its written down the side, but i didnt think that cat was a shakespeare.
I thought the cat that Francis made (as Jon mentions above) was called the Hydracat
As I remember it was entered as a Shakspeare and had the decals as it is now

Not sure if Shakespear built the cat themselves but it was designed by Lorne and is 20ft Long, it looks very similar to the 27 foot that Blufin has and was obviously a shrunk down version.

DodgyDan, As Woody has mentioned I raced against the Shakespeare cat at AllHallows in '93. I have a video that my dad took over the week. If my pc doesn't fatally die like it did the other week, I will try and capture pics from it.

Hi CawBlimey, Woody said that you were now on here.
Ahh Bonkers, those were the days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a picture on my wall of B-53 Fugazi (me), B-66 Commodore Flyer and B-153 Argo Cat from Allhallows.
