A perfect then and now Nigel.
Little difference are between the livery of the old and the remake version and plus a modern choice of the power that I can't approve but the new owner have made a good job.

It's my old CUV, I sold it in March this year to this gentleman in UK. He switch the old Nr5 SSM to Nr 6 and install two Illmor V10 to race around britain but the boat was not ready in time.
I'm happy to see it racing again.

Apparently there was a consistant problem with one of the motors, which was sent back and rectified. Now she's sweeeeeet!

Hi marco

it,s been a while we've talked.
how are you?
Last time we were talking about classic powerboats .We talked about why they cannot be seen racing and why they are scrapped. But now something has changed, a perfect classic restored and racing for its glory.
