Default Cigarette Boat Query

Hi Guys,

I own the original cigarette racing boat owned by Stefan Ackerie, I think it was called "Shampoo" and I think it came first in a race in 1978 and in the 1980's.
.
Would love if anyone had any information, pictures, and just anything of historical importance.

Can you please enlighten me somewhat??

Would be very appreciative,

Have some photos if it will help but cannot post them here

Cheers

Is that boat featured in SEARACE?

HORBA has most of the photos of the sport from the 60's onward, but I don't ever remember hearing of a race boat by that name.
