There was also an inflatable 'raft' as there's a guy in the next village to where we used to live had a Camel Discovery) think it was a 96/97 support vehicle


Wonder if these guys can help source the background to the boat?

they were used in the 2000 camel event after landrover(BMW) finished in 1998.
The event was around the pacific islands of tonga/somoa

Honda provided CRV's to move the boats around which could not get them up slipways out of the water. They used Discos then hitched the crv's up for the photo then put discos back on.

The guy who owned that one came in last week for lights. He's bought it for fun!!!!!
