Davey Wilson on back speak with Cesare Fiorio Team Manager of Martini Racing.
"Dry Martini 3" was a Coyote 38' that didn't made a good impression. Niccolai raced with it in Viareggio-Bastia-Viareggio in 1979 but the boat delaminated in the hull during the race. Niccolai then abandoned this boat and back to the old Picchiotti-Shead 38' in alluminium to race the World Championships Final in Venice. But he met Betty Cook with her Cougar cat 38' Kaama....

A Coyote 38 was racing in P1 or Hamsworth Trophy a few years ago, will look for some pictures, I am sure not many of these boats made it to Europe
