Apologies if you have seen this request before but it is important to the Fairey Owners Club and you may not have picked it up.
Many of you may know that Double Century, a Huntsman 31 which took part in the 1972 London to Monaco powerboat race, is nominated for the best Restored Power Vessel in the Classic Boat Awards. This would be a coup for Fairey powerboats if she won.
I would encourage you to cast a vote by voting for Double Century.
VOTING IS ONLY OPEN UNTIL 5PM TOMORROW, SUNDAY15 MARCH..
Here is an extract from Classic Boat magazine.…
Restored Powered Vessels
DOUBLE CENTURY
Design Alan Burnard, Build Fairey 1971, LOD 31ft 3in (9.5m), 2 x 280hp diesels
The 1972 London to Monaco powerboat race, awards, open-water rescues, storms and a lot of sherry colour this Huntsman’s history. Now fully restored by her owner, Nick Whittle, race boat 200 is a thing of schoolboy wonder, a cherished family cruiser and a living legend. Full story in the December issue.
