Very cool historical item from the British "Look At Life" series that were shown in the early sixties before the movie at theaters.
I had seen a couple of "look at life" serials about things like hovercraft and flying cars but didn't know about this one. Has some early beachcat type 16 footers, "C Class" Little Americas Cup boats, and very large cats.
