Just been looking at DVD of VBV 90,and it shows a white SDA being towed into the docks half submerged having crashed in practice according to Polli.Polli then says he will use the old Molinari cat of 89 for the race because his 3rd boat a 4 engine craft rebuilt from Porto Cervo is basically too new to race.This 3rd boat must have pitched up as well,because Polli says he had yet to decide which one to race even though he favoured the Molinari.
From all that ,is he talking about the Bearcat 45 to later be Deroa (as crashed in practice),and the 3rd boat,the white SDA codecasa later to be painted black for 91 season.
Also in Malta 93 the red CUV/Aurantium was raced.The world waits for BT/Shifter to solve the case.

In my post #26 I speak of "new cat 4 engines" boat but I referred me to the cat that was damaged at Porto Cervo and restored with a new cockpit in time for the VBV. The other one was the cat of Molinari with which Polli then raced. I don't have photo and I don't remember of a SDA half submerged at Viareggio.
Flying can you take the frame from the video and post here?
The red cat at Malta in 93 was the other aircraft carrier of Polli that was ready in 1991 (sister boat of that white) and that was stickered CUV.

In 1990 CUV was partnership of Codecasadue in the construction of the first 4 engines 45' that Polli he used as test boat and that then became the 301 Deroà in 1991.

Studied the DVD further and the crash in testing he referred to was Sardinia even though the interview was in Viareggio.
So what I thought was his 3rd boat was in fact his 2nd boat at Viareggio,the white Codecasa,repaired.
This flippin Bearcat 45ft grey in colour.Is this Polli test boat never raced, until it became Deroa? I seem to be entering all sorts of tunnels never knowing if I`m comming out of the one I went into.

As has already said shifter the Bearcat 45' was abandoned and in the 90 Polli drove the other 45' white of Birkett and the Molinari.

I`ll have to do this in two posts due to max downloading.

OK.Another throw of the dice.Pic 1,2 & 3 of same boat,which was then painted white as Pic 4 & 5,then became Pic 6.
Pic 1,2 & 3 never raced?
The abandoned Bearcat 45 was a different boat to above?
It`s your post 15 BT which is throwing me.
Post a pic of the boat before it became Deroa.
Enjoying your popcorn `Little Nige`,this has got more repeats than `The Sound of Music`.

I can't imagine that pics 1, 2, 3 show the same hull as pics 4, 5, 6. Why should they remove one step?
