I was the amateur builder of this boat at the tender age of 18.
I collected the hull and kit from W & C on the day that the first man-made object hit the moon, hence the name:? Moonstruck.
It was very fast, and a race-winner straight out of the box.
Shortly?after I completed it I joined the Navy so hardly used it and my parents sold it for me.
Does it still exist?
