Boat Nr 77 'Limit up' makes a nice turn at 20:10

I believe "he" was no longer in the boat - that was the nav.

Just watched Graham's video.
Question.
How did Mike Doxford get away with running 2 boats, both with the name "Limit Up" and both with the same race Number 77?
I do realise that 1 was the 35' Cig and the other Ex Bob Magoon's Miami-Nassau 40' Cig.

When he had the Stuyvesant sponsorship in '81, at the race prior to Cowes, the Needles Trophy I think, one of the European competitors had the same race number. As this was the hosting nation, MLD had to change his race number.
