... and the best laid plans of mice and men often go astray...

The boat is still firmly in the barn, however the mooring is now only a matter of meters from the sea! Despite thinking we were nearing launching day over a week ago we have been delayed by leaking shaft seals on the stern drive. Craigie Engineering to the rescue! One of our problems was we didnt know which model as the identification plate is long since gone, but with a lot of patience and research from Craigie Engineering this has now been sussed and parts ordered. With this forced barn time we have been doing further work on the engine. Huge thanks to Mitchell Powersystems who have guided us from afar through numerous emails and lots of wiring diagrams!

  So our new launch date? Very soon! 

Again we are very much indebted to both Craigie Engineering and Mitchell Powersystems, we would have been lost without their help and support over the last weeks... Thank you!
