I was getting there, slowly

I was getting there, slowly. 'There' being finding the answer to your rather engrossing question; "can you guess who it is ?".
I did not mean I was getting there, in response to your post "I wish you were there that day".
Hope that clears things up.

COMSHIP,
Please ask him if he would like to sell everything & contact me. I could have buyers for everything there

Do I see a pereformance boat project in your future? If so, I'll reveal my identity - AFTER THE WORK IS DONE, just in time for a test ride!!

You sound like my old throttle man LOL. Is that M. Z. messing with me??

No. I'm not MZ. Don't you know he no longer enjoys the sensation of throttles, preferring halyards and such? He's getting old I guess... I'm just another prematurely gray friend who's spent some time hanging around with you, MZ, some goodwill ambassadors and other assorted characters!

Helloooooooooooooooo Miller!

You finally figured it out!!! Have a nice holiday with the family!

By the way, thanks for the kind condolences earlier this year. I appreciate it.

No problem my old friend. I hope you can enjoy the holidays, thinking of all the good things and have a smile on your face.
My best to you and your family!
David

Thanks. Appreciate that. Call me when you're in the city next.

Enjoy the holidays.

Powerboats graveyard

Hi everyone
it is sad to see the old racers in this situation but remember they were pure out and out racers whereas from the 60's to mid 70's they were designed to race under strict rules especially for the legendary Cowes Torquay Races.

My interest? well I was fortunate enough to be gifted by Don Shead, racer/designer of repute, Tommy Sopwith's first Cowes Torquay winner "THUNDERBOLT" which I have restored to historic original. Not a luxury yacht I know but the forerunner of most designs around today who owe their existence to Ray Hunts talents.
She appeared at the revived Earls Court Boat Show December last year and is now awaiting a search for sponsorship/benefactor to assist with her re-engineering.
If anyone is interested please go to www.classicoffshore.com and see what we are doing to try and save the sports history in GB.

right. the fresh and clean was a cuv cat, first time build with two canopys, after the accident of stefano casiraghi with pinot di pinot in 1992 fresh and clean was build new by cuv with one canopy in the middle of the hull
