Sam found a Riva website last night which had a Riva Portofino on it - but I can't remember the website, so as soon as he hauls his bottom out of bed I'll ask him (it's half term) .

forensic analysis of painting

Painting of a photo I suppose. Otherwise the painter surely wouldn't have bothered to paint the wake of the photo boat at the far right. In which case, this portofino job probably does really exist, isn't just folklore

Re: Here we go !

Thanks Pauline - it looks nothing like the Portofino I'm looking for!

We've got a copy of the last survey it says 'SHIPBUILDER: PORTOFINO Spa - Italy' on the translated version and 'Cantieri navali CARASCO - Portofino S.p.a' on the Italian original.

Cantieri have emailed me - they didn't build it.
