Here is a quick quiz for our British friends.

This is the engine room of a former Cowes winner.

What is the name of the boat?
What year did it win Cowes?
What kind of engines?

Wild Safaris posted with a question on how to get the best insurance for these older restored boats.

At this time I don't know of any specific company that is writing policies for these types of boats. I guess the best place would simply be the normal companies that write general boat insurance.

It was in Mar del Plata in 1978.
