Badger
Robert Bruce was dark blue.LPW was red and white.The only Badger`s I can think of was Lady A`s circuit boats or the cougar III D cat,and they weren`t red.

Badger
Can`t tell you the final resting place of Ford P or Sundancer/Pobjoy Mint.
The only other Lady A boats that come to mind are the Hunton and Wellcraft,but they are nothing like Ford P.Assume the race number was 82 or 8.Something in the back of my mind tells me she may have had something to do with LPW,but I can`t find a record of it to hand,and anyway the boat is in the UK for sale,ref Miss Enfield II.I just cannot piece it together at present.Sounds like she got hold of one of the Allday boats but never raced it.Odd!

Don`t mock the afflicted
She is bedridden now.There was the plastic red Danamos boat last recorded in 87 as Agfa Copyproof (ex-Red Rum,ex- Paasing Cloud).Maybe she bought that when into Granny racing.

Lady Arran did race the Robert Bruce boat for a few events and it was painted red. Cannot remember what name it had.
May have had petrols fitted by then?
Don't think it was seen again.

The 3 pointer with the inboards and outriggers ended up with outboards I think, possibly Robert Windmill.

Dunno why it didn't work, think it had crusader marine smallblocks. Tony Fiddy may well know where it is, possibly in his fantasy fleet of boats.

No idea on that one after it became Lucy in the Sky....
Always found the Ceal-Na-Mara tri more interesting, although rarely saw it running strongly.
I think that one became a feature at a Marina / boat yard entrance?

Lady A Racer
Fascinated to know more info on that Lady A shead racer Adam.I can`t find any reference to it,unless it wasn`t worthy of a mention in dispatches,but I have found Tim`s outrigger in a frog mag.All my photos of the arse end didn`t have it fitted.

Hi Graham
Will see if I can trace any details - just remember it at a few events and think it either didn't start or did very little mileage.
