You can keep replying to me if you like - i assume you got the shared docs on my google drive for the spec sheets? Feel free to ask any questions :)

HI Andrew Wow thats a blast from the past :) - it was owned by a friends friend - Did you want to flick me a PM? Steve

These ones did have.. the more common version would be what we call a T top here.. a lot of boats in the UK seem to shy away from covers! Steve

Some nutty guys went round Australia in 2x 5.4m ribs.. apparently had some fun with crocs.. but can't imagine you will have that issue... Story here... Follow the Yellow Boat Road - Pennicott Foundation Steve

A little far from us but lovely part of WA.. we are heading down that way in a few weeks.. with the tinny in tow.. and yes agree - it doesnt matter which you use.. they all will save a disaster - some earlier than others! I'll leave you to design that VAS :) - Yes the Seawater pressure or flow...

Funny our twin cummins with the silicon marine kit sit all day at 32 degrees with 23 degree water - however at just above idle - ie 900-1200rpm - its creeps up to 70+deg pretty quickly. We have the graphed version of the silicon marine one - but even the simple ones are actually quite smart and...

Pm sent as a test!

Just wondering what it takes to activate PM's on here? Just wondering if you have them switched off in your profile (if that's even possible) it's been so long since I registered on here I forgot the requirements! I was just going to message you my number... Just looked and if you look in...

Oh and are you a member of SoPYC? Had some great opening days there (was VC at Ocean reef) and had some great opening days at Ocean reef with the past Commodore Paul W.. Great bunch. I'm planning on heading to the boat tomorrow (in all its ripped up floor glory) after a meeting at HYC to...

HI TM Have you had a look at the thomascrafts? Just giving you other options - I like the thomascrafts but wouldnt want a single engine.. I also like the AM 40+ and some of the precision marine craft.. there are some good value boats if you are willing to hunt and wait.. If the leeder you are...

Try silicon marine UK based, good product.. goes in through the exhaust hose so gives fast warning. I have the twin engine version on my Cummins 6bta's Steve

Hi TM Tsalta actually sold again recently.. (I think) - I think the previous owners that bought when the video was made by Brendan Grieves (Spelling) sold it after a year. Its now moored up at Mindarie but looks to be getting some use out of it as we have seem him there and down at Freo as...

Yep I met him when our friend launched his then 100 year old boat after a plank by plank rebuild. Len did the design for the lug sail mast etc for it.. and came to the grand launch. The boat was designed and built by our friends great great grandfather which he didnt realise when he first saw...

The Cummins engines are a bit lower revving although I'm not sure what size the d6 is.. but the 6bta is one of the largest number produced engines in the world and is /was used in trucks and buses all over. Good base engine that does need maintenance but when done right can last 10 to 20000...

Yeah it takes a while but we'll get there.. i'll pm you as soon as its possible. I'm on Q jetty on the club side.. Pens are getting a bit steep price wise in Hillarys now. Hopefully they will realise they are killing the industry and reverse some of the fees! The turbo things doesnt surprise me...
