In this video clip, you can have a short glimpse at “the very confidential Errol Flynn” at the opening of the film festival of Cannes in probably 1949. Hope you enjoy!

And here, if you scroll down, you see him try a boat named “Monocoque”… just to add to Tina's previous boat post.

Hi Inga!
Pure Genius! Wonderful, another boat of Errol in our archive!
Keep going Master Sleuth!
It says: “Errol Flynn tries one in the presence of Frantz Liuzzi “Monohull FL”, which will become the ZACA runabout”
Take care, Tina

Yes, great find, Inga! Thanks for sharing this video link with us, and the pics of Errol and that boat. How did you come across these?

Thanks, you two. I found the video via a link from a facebook acquaintance, and then I hoped to find some more photos of that event, but all I came across were these boat photos… I don't know if any photos from the Cannes opening do exist at all.
