    Have you ever seen dual-level canopies on a raceboat?

    This Vosper has them. Powered by quad Jaguar motors.



    If you like this kind of stuff, the HORBA website has thousands of pics in their archives.

    This is what they were racing in the open ocean back in the 60's. Hopefully Charlie can poke his head in and tell some stories.

    PIMP OF THE NATION, now that is an iconic boat of this century. I bet that guy had no idea when he painted that name on it that it would become so epic in the performance boating world haha.

    I think that would be a fly bridge rather than dual canopies...

    As compared to the "FLY bri-z-idge, y'alls" on PON!

    That's hilarious!

    I thought my buddies boat was bad....

    He's got "PANTY DROPPER" written down the sides of his 302 Baja, probably about 15' long.
