The boat was built for a Japanese team in '92 I think to compete in their "Off Open" class. It is 13.30m x 3.61m, propelled by 4 x 600hp Yanmars. If i remember it correctly the boat primarily was a testbed for those Yanmar engines (E80A 1) that were the prototypes for Yanmar's high-performance pleasure boat engines.
One of the team members was a famous Japanese F1 cirquit driver, not sure whether it was Sugihara or Ishikawa.
