Had some better pics of it must try & dig them out
Edit: had them on the server so linked to em from work instead
sorry they are low res
What ever happened about the "Historic" Class is it going to happen. Would slot into that quite well, dunno if the Midas would as I dont know the Age limit, I'd fit though

Is that the same boat?
Uncle had one which he reckoned was the same but a different deck style - "Blighline Racing"?
Never raced it though then it was broken up for firewood

Maybe you should have a bid Tony! The postage is pretty reasonable at only £7 but I think Parcelfarce might have a little trouble getting it into one of their vans never mind getting it in your letter box

I thought 'Blighline' was a new boat when 1st raced in the all yellow colour scheme. I could be wrong though.

There was a Red one before that won the 4ltr in the CI, Argentine 2nd best brit was 3rd I think. It spawned a return to sponson seating with the pumas following the next year, trend at the time was for ctr seating on the tunnel
Kiwiracer..... bit of help her mate, long term RAM is shot
