Those Ruskies....

Whilst away I spotted and bought a Russia Rib Magazine and although I couldn't read a word, it had some great pictures. From this you can see some real fast buggers with 200hp Mercurys on their tails. Has anyone any idea if this is a "Class" or just a load of Russians going mad !
