Way back in the 60's all the big boats Tramontana BRUCE CAMPBELL Christina's and others used an expensive aircraft based control system called BLOCTUBE, the company no longer exist's but if anyone has an inkling of old stock or parts hidden in some dark hole anywhere give me a shout please!!!!! required for the restoration of Thunderbolt winner of the 1961 Cowes Torquay. ALSO while I am at it keep your ears to the ground for useable CADILLAC CRUSADERS OR FORD INTERCEPTORS preferably with gearbox's
