Riva....a Enfield-Shead. Nice.
A Riva's boat raced only one time in offshore I think.
In the London-Montecarlo in 1972.
The Rivas was'nt a hull right for race.

The first shot here is of the driver being thrown out - sadly he died. The two remaining crew were on the floor of the cockpit as it raced up the beach at Cowes. Amazingly no one on shore was killed. The two crew were OK.

The above shots were from the '76 race. Here is a shot of the hull some time later, running twin diesels. It was a very successful hull in this configuration.
