Vogue
The boat and owner are based in Portishead near Weston-Super-Mare.
The boat now has a 2.5efi on it.
I think that James the owner / Driver put the website together a few years back when he was interested in getting into OCR.
He may have done one or 2 basic races with it around that time but thats it.

Re: was just surfing around
The boat was originally owned by Paul Nicholls who raced it in OCR in the late nineties. He then sold it and bought a P19. Did a couple of basic races in that, including the Windermere Enduro. I heard he then bought a Backdraft, but never seen him out in that.

I bought the Bakdraft for the engine. ended up splitting the rest up - trailer went for a RIB, Hull went to Mike Pike (now sold onto Maxim) and various other bits and pieces elsewhere!
Think Mike Nicholls was workin gaway quiet a lot and boating just didn't fit in.
