Strange noise from Rochford?

[flipper]

If any locals were wondering what the noise coming from Sutton Wharf earlier this week was...

...it was my new (to me) engine running!!!

That's progress, believe me.

Those one pot Yanmars are some thumpers.

Which Yanmar is it Patrick? I've got an old YSM8 and that is wonderful as you can have a conversation between each stroke when idling next to someone else's boat. If I remember correctly you were replacing a YSB or YSE12 weren't you?

Hi John

Yes it's the YSE12. How was the Pacific?

Very big and lots of islands and reefs that you have to miss. Also very deep, I was worried I might drown crossing the Tonga Trench at 10,000 metres deep. And Mururoa Atoll glows in the dark.

This is what happens to Tuna that swim too close to Mururoa.
