Renato Molinari Racer Motonautica Categoria R3 d'occasion

Expertly crafted for high-speed competition, the Il Saffa is a distinguished catamaran built by the iconic Renato Molinari shipyard in 1978. Designed specifically for the demanding R3 category, this vessel earned its reputation during the prestigious 24 Hours of Rouen, where its specialized marine plywood hull demonstrated exceptional performance in challenging, turbulent waters.

This historic racer is offered in good general condition, having been preserved in covered storage to maintain its structural integrity. The vessel retains its original Saffa racing livery, providing an authentic aesthetic for collectors of classic marine equipment.

Technically, the catamaran features a unique layout with the cockpit positioned forward and the engine bay located in the aft section, a configuration optimized for balanced weight distribution during high-speed racing. The sale includes the original Fiat 131 Abarth engine, currently requiring a mechanical overhaul, along with a wheeled cradle for easy transport and display. This Renato Molinari Racer Motonautica Categoria R3 represents a significant opportunity for collectors focused on vintage motorboat racing.
