Bunyip is my brother Jim's first home designed and built National. Based on the Roscoe Squid design with the dangerous fine bow section filled out. Was the terror of ELSC and elsewhere for a number of years.
Bunyip is an Aboriginal mythical beast and an appropriate name for Jim's boat.
N2440 was a Bunyip upgrade with some minor mods. Raced by Pete Chignall, also at ELSC.
