Injectors

Left home at 0300 hrs, on boat before 0700 hr , fitted new injectors, noticed something in engine water intake filter , popped it out, asked swmbo to rinse out under tap , heard a shout ,she had only dropped it of the jetty into the water, not impressed :(. Did manage to fire up each engine, but will not be going anywhere this weekend,
boating don,t you just love it, :)

Dropped petrol cap into river yesterday, managed to hook it by using fishing rod with spinner wound into the top hoop of the rod as far as it will go; lower whole rod into water and grapple.

Yep had a go with fishing rod,only trouble water was on the ebb ,marina has also recently been dredged, did suggest to swmbo to dive in after it, can,t type what her reply was :)

Both engines running great, used to get a little smoke when first started now nothing,looking forward to giving them a sea trial,have to say these old lumps have always performed well :) ,will have to catch up soon, trust all is well, have you been out and about much .

Hi Merlyn - Just read your latest update - 4 minutes door to door is that a new record!! - Lorraine obviously put he foot down :D
Great shame about the raw water filter bit as you could have popped over for a coffee during your sea trial. [Blonde moment must've temporarily kicked in kicked in :D]
Well at last you know all is now ok so the sailing season can now begin for Too Calm until the next boat fix comes along :encouragement:

See you both soon - Is Barney with you btw
