Former 5.5 SR 1 in Italy

Enzo reports on this boat, found on the shores of Lago Maggiore:
"...The boat arrived from San Pietersburgo (the only sure thing). Who brought the boat to Italy says that is Russia I..."
As the sailnumber SR-1 had been dedicated to at least two boats in Russia, it has to be found, which boat it was. One Option is "Burevestnik", the other one "Druzhba III". Given the lines of the boat and the double cockpit, it looks like being former 5.5 S 3.

According to Till Rors (1952/16, p. 12) Burevestnik was originally SWE-3 KSSS 1951 (by Tore Holm).
Burevestnik means "stormbringer", a type of seabird, in Russian and may refer to the Soviet Trade Unions' sports association by the same name.
She participated in the Helsinki Olympics in 1952 crewed by Alexandrov, K., Aleksejev, L. and Pankrashkin, P.
