It was then shipped to Australia where it was rebuilt and has since had a couple of new canopies. Its also currently for sale although looks incrediably different.

This boat started in UIM Class1 in 1990 as NOTAREAL driven and owned by JP-Mattila from Finland who became world champion 1992 ( thats one up for the Swedes, Again, in Motorsports)
Sad to see the Deck is all "spoiled" although it became lighter as the deck is a composite one.

PS.. anyone looking for itīs original engines ?
