It is available to buy online - although not cheap.
Failing that email Laura Levi.

Hi Adam, It's a 25' Levi Settimo Velo, the for-runner to the Triana Tropica 25. It needs a lot of work! The hull is sound overall, but the transom needs replacing. The teak decks have been covered in glass fibre and need completely replacing. It needs engines, driveshafts.....! I won't be racing it in next years C-T-C!! I'll still keep the Revenger for racing in the mean time. See you soon.

Sounds good - always been keen on the Levi cruiser / racer boats. My parents owned one of the Levi Corsairs back in the 70's - and had some great times on her.
All the best with the restoration!
