If you mean the boat that went seriously skywards at around 3min 22sec - no!! It was an aluminium (british spelling!) 32´ hull designed by Don Shead. This was originally Miss Enfield (Tommy Sopwith), then it became Yellowdrama, as seen in the video (driven by Ken Cassir, who in 1977 won the Cowes race aboard the famous Yellowdrama wooden cougar cat). The hull then raced as Blitz - in 1976 during the Cowes race it threw out the driver Alf Bontoft who was killed. The boat carried on onto a rocky beach along the seafront at Cowes. I have a photo somewhere I will try and dig it out. Later the hull was re-engined with diesel motors and ran as British Buzzard.
