Fred Collins and Bill Orgill had a

Fred Collins and Bill Orgill had a long narrow-gutted ‘pinnace’ (about 20 foot, or 6 metres), powered by a Ford V8 inboard engine, which had seen service in Tasmania and Gippsland Lakes, which they named ‘Slipstream’. It was generally believed to be from one of the Services. It had low freeboard, and looked like a torpedo boat, and moved reasonably fast, but at the launching when, due to an incorrect propeller installation, it went full speed astern. The intrepid owners later used the boat for fishing, and became well known for their adventurous exploits.

Jim Douglas’s ‘Billie’ was a 15-foot fibreglass river boat with very low freeboard, definitely not designed for the sea. She had a 40 hp. outboard earlier which was replaced by 50 hp., hence she was drastically over-powered as well. Jim took her alone to Cowes on a pleasant yacht race day. Whilst there the wind grew stronger, and a catamaran tipped over. Jim and ‘Billie’ went to assist, over four-foot waves. Suddenly he realised that the speedo wasn't working and the boat was not responding to the tiller. On slowing down slightly everything began to work. He then realised that the only explanation was that the boat had been sitting up out of the water on its engine cavitation plate. However it was still doing 40 knots! The cat was recovered.
