It could be nice project for Round Britain Race but you need to have a LOT of time to work on it

You would think it would at least have a deck chair or similar for the 'rear throttleman'
If it had tubes, I'd assume it was a leeway.

Could be interested, think it may fit well in to the P1 series...perhaps not quite enough power for evolution though more supersport

Something tells me it's got a bit of 'dodgy' history if you know what I mean..................if it was mine and I was planning a trip to France for the weekend I think I'd ask Customs to look over it before leaving!

The boat is an old Cigarette, it was for sale in a yard in Christchurch and was purchased a few months ago by a guy called Rupert Bonham-Smith, he allways does things on the cheap.

Now this is the blue hulled ShoGun right?
The grin on young Ruperts face will surely turn sour soon.
The seller informed me that this boat has sunk already once therefore just a bare hull for sale. With the craftmanship like that in the pics it will surely take another dive any second.
In fact it took a dive at the launch already as skilled rupert prolly had been doing proper halloween costumes instead of checking all the holes in the transom he tried to fill.
He hadn´t even paid it full before he took it out from the yard.
I hope the seller gets all his money.
If not I´m ready to step in and save it.
