I guess the Dino you're referring to was a GT4, not a GT?
Chalk and cheese respectively, in terms of design.
In fact, arguably the latter was even superior to the DB5.

Can't remember, never got a chance to get in the Dino, though been in the Aston a few times with him. The Dino passed me once, I was doing about 105mph and it went passed me like I was standing still.
A friend of my father offered him a new Ferrari and a substantial amount of cash for the Dino but he said no. The Dino was still in his garage when he passed away, along with the Aston, a 1930's Rolls Royce and a few other old timers, as daily transport he cycled.
Dr John Eaton Turner was his name, he signed prescriptions as JET, he was a great character, he lived round the corner from us.

Hi Marcohi76 ,
Sorry I couldn’t make the preview ( was @ a Parchute reg reunion in Normandy ) and thx for posting the pics .

Eveything changes ,time and fashion moves . It’s looks fabulous. But it’s the seakeeping for me ( not yet disclosed / tested by journalist) thats the main , principal benefit of Itama . Not so much the “ Hotel “ side . Plenty of floating caravans from the competition. Let’s not loose sight of the thread title .

As for cars it’s not the value for me it’s the drive , the feeling behind the wheel . Prefer older over newer

We currently have two Ferrari , prefer older V8 s over newer.
One is a Dino , which we classic rally with .

I will tell you something nobody knew.....Itama...is the designer’s name spelled backwards

Its been known since ages. I was told the story in 1995 by Amati himself and his wife at the Genoa Boat Show, after which they showed me the 46, which was the novelty at that show,

To be honest before they told me I used to think it was a mix of Ita for Italy and his name.

Every owner does and those around the brand .

Same with the Onid Irarref - Even fewer people know that.

@Portofino
I'll go at Cannes Yachting Festival this week and I'll have a second and better look at the 54.

Is anybody going as well this week?

Not sure if it was already mentioned but due to my experience one of the most important factors in seakeeping capabilities of a boat is the skipper,s experience to handle the sea , adjust course and speed and adapt to the waves.

of course we are still talking p***y weather because i,m pretty sure no recreational 40-48ft motoryacht is ready for a violent winter storm in open north sea or north atlantic .
