It was an important boat to me as won the 3C Europeans in it. So sad to see the state it is in.
If it was cheap I would be tempted......
Would actually take it back to the original spec. Started modifying the boat when I should l have left alone and worked on the set-up - but have learnt a whole lot since those days.

Pierre Magnan said both of them sucked a gallon a Minute.
A frenchman is in the process of bringing Nr. 3 back on the water.
I still have Video somewhere of one of those Monocats chasing a 31' Bertram through a Floating shed for a Remy Julienne stunt show. Very nice boats!
