Good job!
I remember when that cat came in Viareggio. I hoped could be as the Jesse James, but when I saw it in water it was so different instead from it. Less weapon.
I don't know if it were guilt of the greatest length, of the Lambos or of Fruitier, but that cat didn't go so fast. It find difficult to take the glide.
I remained disappointed.

The late Grand Prix driver, Didier Pironi, acted as sort of an "agent/manager" for the project and it took various twists and turns as he wheeled and dealed. At one point he was negotiating to build a boat out of carbon fiber, before this one was completed. It was very confusing to all involved.
I am thrilled that it has been restored and it looks great....
Nice job on a truly unique Euro/American collaboration.

I do......
This isn't something that will be out in the public domain......and it always amazes me that people ask for proprietary information.
If we went to all the trouble of building reverse angles subtly into each of the Conquests to prevent "popping"......why in the world would we give out the plans??????
