Spectacular views H, many thanks. Looks like another trial you have put yourself through, one for the team.
The low maintenance IPS looks a good idea, do you think this might work on a 50' Prinny?

Yes, I do.

A couple of old Toyota diesel engines mounted to brackets which Colhel will be able to cobble together. Going astern is a bit of a job, you'll need a couple of people one either side and you use your feet to swing the Supadrive © legs around to the side of the boat.

I really can't see it being a problem. No doubt there will be doubters but you can't hold back progress, that's what I say :)

Quite. Don't listen to them.

Your superb vids are only getting better, if I may say so. The Thailand Tourist Board have done very well for themselves. :)
 
No its the sacrifice Henry goes through on our behalf, you can tell he suffered a lot, I mean no fish for breakfast :)

The voice of reason.

You did make me laugh out loud though Andy

Full disclosure the cornflakes were just first course, a sort of pre-breakfast if you will.

Here in the jungle of Khao Sok conditions are much harder. Planning to report back on a couple of skippered charters.

Nice vid, I was just about to ask but then I saw you mention it above.

I had guessed East Phuket / Krabi area, purely because of the landscape. We've done LOS twice (in a more flash-packer style, though) and glad we went back the second time, but think that'll do it for now... not in a rush back.

Enjoy your holiday... you going exploring the country a bit more, or chilling out?
