Terrific Canopy!!

Hi Ian - the canopy has been fine from day one. It actually didn't leak at all. Also, I have been out and done 45kts with the canopy up and no problems.

The water pump bit is cos I noticed on my port motor that the raw water intake pump had a wobbly shaft. The bearings and gland packing were starting to fail. It maybe could have lasted the rest of the season, but I don't like to take that sort of chance, cos I do so many miles when I'm out. Its easy to get at (three bolts) so...off it came. Should have checked availability of spares first.....
