Ben, I´ve never seen any video footage from that race - can you upload a clip? Or better still tell me where I can get hold of a copy?

It was sent to me by a friend in the States.

Might be able to help with a clip soon as I am anticipating a visit from the download/upload maven this weekend.

I saw Makita P16 on the Medway (Kent) over a year ago a number of times, occasional see Chris (now lives in Hunstanton) and Geoff at Allhallows, if I remember I will ask what happened to it.

Not high - but always feels good getting air in a turn and being in control.

Clive Jones and me in a little Fletcher 129 c/w Yamaha 55 with Power Trim!!!!! It was my first ever race, but hey, what a bloke to do your first race with.
Thanks Clive it has been and still is much appreciated.
It was Clive's Uncle Chas who took the pic. I think my old man may still have the video he took from that race in Dave Lee's 21' Ring "Quick Erections". I'll see if I can transfer pics from it.

Right, I'm cancelling that 38!
Don't cancel it.

Found some video footage that I didn't know I had. Buzzi lost the heat but won the Superboat championship in 94 - AND 95!

Shows what I know.

Estimated 35 foot jump

I got that video of the finish at Ramsate where I hit the wave and fly. If you use the V24 as scale, I am out the water for about 35 foot!
