Spent Hours polishing the bloody thing...

[Murv]

before it went back in a couple of weeks ago, and some barsteward has clumped it in the marina and cleared off.
And, no, no-one saw anything.

 

[paultallett]

That's gutting, truely sorry to hear that. Which marina are you at??

 

[boatone]

Looks like blue topsides may have been involved?

 

[rafiki_]

Horrible. Hope you find the culprit.

 

[lynall]

Got to be one of your neighbours?
Time for a little walk around

 

[Bertramdriver]

We share your pain. My bête noire are the yotties who run the top of their stanchions down the side of my boat when backing in. I now have so many scratches I'm thinking of making a feature of them.

They must have all been dazzled by the bright sun reflecting off your topsides . . .

Get rid of the bloody thing,it is an 'unlucky boat'
Px it with old git

 

[Murv]

Thanks all, one of those things I guess. I'll have to try and repair it as it's up for sale.
The Blue is actually the colour of mine under the gelcoat.

Good idea to p/x with OldGit, but I sometimes get the feeling he's not overly enamoured with outdrives!

Incidentally, we seem to have cured the run of bad luck. Changed the cork ball on the keyring for a new one and had absolutely no trouble since (true story!)
