The proof is in the vid, works a treat, well done! :clappy Shows what we can do with a few odds and sods and a bit of brain power. Like the set up with all the kit in the boat, you must have been a boy scout. I haven't got a main engine yet and now I'm thinking about an aux. :scratch

Howdy guys happy with the end product and it's performance.
Just needed to trim the engine out a but didn't want to dip my fingers in the ice cold water again.
Paul B getting to your wee job done this afternoon so will get it posted Monday.
With regards to this years WWA it will almost certainly be the T3.8 that's coming along.
The 3.5ae is a cracking Sib but it is just a bit too heavy for me to wrestle around with my injuries so it will be going up for sale shortly.
The purpose of my wee trip out was to try out my new plotter / finder which santa brought me and to take my wee cocker spaniel pup out on the water to see how she faired.
Glad to say she absolutely loved it - my new sibbing buddy............. :drive

Looks good mate, last piece of my project coming together, seat is getting covered, hopefully get it back next week....then out for a test run....then up for a meet and some winter cruising/overnighters if your up for it?

BTW the cocker looks like a cracker...I've got a dog life jacket for our cocker you can have it if its any use...shes too old for boating now and it won't fit the springer...
