   The Cowes to Torquay Race is a classic British offshore race of around 200 miles of rough water and weather. As you scroll down the page it is interesting to see the development of the boats over the years.
   
   One or two of the winners' names may ring a bell.
   
   Dick Bertram
   Don Aronow
   Sonny Levi
   Don Shead
   Fabio Buzzi
   Norberto Ferretti

   Hi,
   
   Good link Fish.
   
   I had the pleasure to work with Sonny Levi for almost 3 yrs.
   
   He was always upbeat and polite no matter how tough the going was and a pleasure to work with.
   
   I will not however say the same about his own design Surface Piercing Propellers.
