Random old boating pics

[topcat]

Hi all, i have a small collection of photos from when my dad was alive(pre1990) showing some fun on the water.
LPW, Easy rider 2(fairey huntsman?), little rib and some racing photos from probably Guernsey 1987.
hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

That bonito 36 is down at the eca and should be back in the water in the next few weeks.

I believe it's still in ownership by the same guy since at least 1986.

Maybe not then! I thought all the pics were from the channel islands

It's powerboat petes boat. Engines in it now. Been sat in the yard for a few years. Still needs a bit of tlc but getting there. It's got a pair of 7.4 mercruisers in it. Can't wait to see it up and running.

Can't find powerboat pete's member listing, has he got photos of the Bonito on here?
