But if Rupert's playing hardball on this then you can't use the Spitfire either as it had significant French input.

Devoti are based in Poland, I think the only thing Italian is the name, but Rodney will confirm.

Surely the hull is the most important thing? Phill Morrison is named as the boat designer, good enough for me.

The D1 hull was Morrison, the rest, not. So, how much Commonwealth do we need for all this?

Created by an Italian company who employed a Brit to do the hull lines - not sure we are there. I think we need to have boats inspired, designed and built in the Commonwealth, if we really are going to get silly about it!

D one isn't made in Italy!


And I've just been reliably informed that the D-One was designed by Phil Morrison, so presumably just as "Commonwealth" as the D-Zero....
