Recognise this? Or is it you?

I was given this the other day-it's about 2'x3' and it's water damaged. It was apparently part of an exhibition from in the 80's.

Anyone recognise the boat? It appears to be a solid foam collar.

If it's anyone here, do you want the pic?

Really? It's NOT a Searider

If you're not extracting the michael, it's yours

I knew I'd seen one somewhere-just couldn't remember where.

Oddly,with Schat-Harding not having a UK base, the exhibition it came from was apparently about collaboration between the UK and Japan.

I finally tracked down the boat that I thought it was and it wasn't it

The one I was thinking of had an inboard jet drive

Ok, I'll bin it then-it's not in particularly good condition so not worth hanging on to.
