Seeking information on a racing launce, from the 1920's and 1930'3 named the Knee Deep and Knee Deep II. I am trying to find out the name of the Polish Count who owned and piloted these vessels.
Can anyone help?

There was a Count Zborowskl who, I think , was the owner of the original "Chitty-Bang-Bang" racing car which he raced at Brooklands and elsewhere. Such blokes were into boat racing as well - anything that would go fast!

Thanks Peter...
I am not sure if he raced on land as well but the name sounds Polish enough to try to tackle the problem this way too.
This fellow was really into the Knee Deep and Knee Deep II. I had seen news articles on the man, as well as a large group of photos but these were all deep sixed by the fellow who had them and now that I could use that info.. well, you know how it goes.
Thanks much for your kind help.
