Windermere was their first National race and they both got a rude awakening to OCR racing. They got caught out on the Rendalls wash on one of the turn buoys and the Argo turned over. Both were OK apart from being soaking wet. They went on to master that little boat and were unbeatable in all conditions.

Flying Argo
Hi guys
Its nice to see a piccy of Rockit,that was taken at Teignmouth I believe, fantastic outfit challenging to drive but very rewarding if a little painfull at times,it was pretty good at passing 2lt Batboats as Rhino and CB1 witnessed in the rough at Littlehampton a few years back! I dont say that Chris and I are finished with powerboat racing we have just taken a couple of years out playing with our Harleys,still got two Phantoms,big Argo and a Zapcat to play with just watching to see something interesting to temp us back out to race!
Merry Xmas to all !
Kirky and Tina
