Footage from the Cowes Classic Powerboat rally.

Loved that vid. Cool Riva. What kind of boat is H204?

The Riva has 3 big block Chevy engines.....and ostrich headlining. It is fabulous.

H204 is a Bernard Olesinki 'Moreland 38' built by R W Clark, 6 were built and the first 5 sank, Olesinki was never too polite about R W Clark's work. That is the surviving one, hull structure was significantly modified, hence survival. On race day she left Cowes at 7am, arrived Torquay without incident, on the way home she took a brokendown race boat under tow. There's life in these old girls yet.
 
Apologies for my ignorance, what boat is this?

I think its a Triana 25 rather than a Tropica. Le Scarron, occasional poster hereabouts will no doubt be along shortly to tell all.

Yep that's right, she is a 1969 Triana 25;- the old girl doesn't do too badly for a 46 year old.

Tear-arsing around in boats, what could be more fun!

A cracking boat you have there.
What's the difference between a 25 and a Tropica?
And have you played with Playtime.....Who won...:)
