The boat we are on is indeed john Burdens Revenger 24, the boat in front is "Hand relief" before it started its racing career and the boat at the back is a Crusader 16.
If i remember rightly it had a 115hp blueband mercury on the back and chine-walked like Fred Astaire danced!
The revenger 25 Sc was a very nice boat, the styling might not have been to everyones taste but it was a very capable weekender. We had a lot of fun on that boat.
When I am running flat out, on dead calm water, with the engine trimmed out (up) as far as poss for top speed, eventually I will hit a ripple (literally), one side of the boat will touch, then the other, with increasing frequency so that the boat is rocking madly. I have to back off the throttle or it feels like the boat will flip.
Yeh some know-all gave me that advice once & about 20 minutes later my previous fletchers windscreen was flat to the waters surface and i had a warm smelly deposit in my cheap wetsuit!
