True......... but not in Offshore conditions. The issue here is Offshore performance hulls.

It just so happens she had a few guns mounted also.

1961 CHRISTINA 25FT "THUNDERBOLT"
Babarina
Hi
not sure if she is still around, the Med must have thousands of boats lurking in harbours and marina's some very famous I am sure..we know that ULTIMA DEA is now used as a fishing boat, apparently in Italy and the fishermen love Levi boats..
There is very good Italian site www.altomareblu.com
which has pages devoted to Levi, it has english translation of sorts!! maybe they may know...tell me are you a fan of Levi ?
I had dinner with him in Puket last new year he is absolutely fascinating to talk to...

Regards
Mike
