A few "interesting" characters showed up on the stand. The guy standing with me in the suit I hadn't seen for some twenty odd years, there is a famous pic of him somewhere at the time racing in the 1981 Round the Island with his navigator wedged in the engine well steering the 3D 25ft Phantom's twin 150 Mercs with his feet as they had lost all steering. I know that as I was following him! And that was all the way from Catherines Point to the finish at Cowes!!

John Clarke, a blast from the past his boats were always so well presented ( even though he got through a few Lambos in his Coiugar cat ! ) a great sight and sound.
