ThrustWSH Talk - Attempt at the Water Speed Record

ThrustWSH - Attempt at the Water Speed Record by Butch Dalrymple-Smith

Yacht designer Butch is one of the designers of Richard Nobel's latest attempt at breaking the present water speed record of 317.6 mph.

He is an amusing speaker and many will remember his presentation of a film of the first Whitbread Round the World race held in 1973.
