Riva Aquarama

[GransportFan1]

Done a bit of research online there is a club called riva uk and they have a few events, maybe we should contact them and have a dual meet, we can give them trips in our cars and they can take us on the water.

That's a good idea.

Well, if anyone wants to spend a little less (maybe 2500 euro?), I could get you into one of these babies....
Top speed 40 knots, "air" conditioning - well you're in....open air), music - sound of 8hp Suzuki 2 stroke souped up to about 15hp and a modified exhaust, custom interior - 1 inch foam glued to the sides, and about 1/3 of the cost is a racing cleaver prop!!!
Best of all....it fits in the back of most SUV'S!!!

Bonker Tubber; I take it they don't actually start off as a functional bath?

LOL - Nope....we make the tub and hull from fiberglass or carbon fiber from molds.
Just a goofy fun sport over here!!

Nice article in this month's* Octane: similar type of boat from 1963, with Maserati 3500GTI engine, and a contemporary Mistral. Stunning.

*ETA: June 2013 in the electronic version. Octane is a mare's nest to find equivalent print versions, absolutely rubbish web and print co-ordination.
