Looking at the wake he can steer a good straight course. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Yes, of course. It gets its annual run in the tank at the yacht club. Leave it running for 30 minutes or so until the complaints about the noise become too much.

Can I claim a prize for having possibly the worst Seagull ever ?
An inboard..Try lying on the cabin sole pulling a bit of string or sailing along knowing you are dragging a girt big 4 blade paddle and lumpy gearbox around under the boat...
/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif Tried it for a week and then promptly took it out...God it whined (when) it ran..
Having said that the boat came with a 40 plus, with clutch as well and on a lifting bracket . Swapped over the electronic ignition AND 4A charging circuit and
Voila, one very reliable motor indeed.
I remain a big fan of all things Seagull

Yes, inboard was a great idea as there was definitely a gap in the market. However never worked as well in practice and I was long gone when the problems started to surface (if thats the right word!)
