Re: 39' Conquest race boat catamaran
It was called Euromanche Rocky, it had lambo's with 5's. It was painted darker colors last time I saw it, I can dig ap a pic maybe. It came to KW one year, maybe 87 to race the worlds. Ithink it is a 35' thought, clone of Jesse James.

2. It raced at KW twice I think...but campaigned mostly in Europe...... It was more lightly built than our later boats and had some damage in a couple of very rough events in the Med.
It was rigged here in NJ....and the v-12 Lambos were shipped to us in 1985.....The first pair to make it over here unescorted. Those are the engines out of The Lamborghini off road SUV....not the sportscar.
