Escape boat in "From Russia with Love"?

[dnadave]

Real technical question, here. What boat was used in the escape and chase scene in "From Russia with Love"? It's a nice looking craft...

Thanks!!

In one of the Bond films a Riva was used.....but this particular "large boat" was Fairey Marine.

What a delightful sidetrack - Peter Twiss (http://www.wingweb.co.uk/biographies/Peter_Twiss.html).

Thanks for the information on the boats. They certainly are nice looking crafts. Plus, there's one for sale: http://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1965/Fairey-Huntress-1985455/River-Deben/United-Kingdom
