Following on from the news that club member Nick Wilkinson has purchased Apache/HTS from David Hagan, comes the even more exciting news that Nick has entered her in the 2013 Cowes Monte-Carlo Marathon.

Those of you who have seen the latest RACEBOAT MAGAZINE will have read the article about her history…that is now also on COPC web site as well and we would like to wish Nick every success with this venture and offer him the clubs wholehearted support.

It appears that "Giovanna" Ron Watts´ Christina / Halmatic raceboat has been located.
More news as we receive it.

This is "GIOVANNA" today, now owned by Mr Cooke and he is looking for her history as to where she has been for the past 40 odd years.
