  1. Engine has arrived ๐Ÿ‘, only slight issue is clocks, gauges have not. Purbeck Marine has informed me that many customers are still awaiting parts (Barrus are the importers) so still delaying due to customs paperwork issues in France ๐Ÿ˜ฉ Some other good news ,Gummidge has also decided to take the plunge ( he can start a new thread ๐Ÿ˜Š) The biggest ๐Ÿ‘once again goes to Mike Hall for lending me his spare engine for the last year, not only that but fitted pedestal seats, fixed the hull, anti fouled etc etc . When I bought Doombar I always had a plan to be a working project, things were on track until the EMM died on the e-tec, , would you(me) spend over ยฃ2000. On a new EMM ? No was the answer, I did send it off to a company in the Netherlands who sorted it out for ยฃ500 , next problem was Evinrude, , very little ( ie none) would be able to service it, etc, so I totally lost confidence I donโ€™t want think about how much time and effort let alone aggravation thatโ€™s seen me in despare, all I wanted was ease,,put the key in, off we go home, if it went wrong I wanted someone to fix it ( without having to wait 8 weeks) I get, it seemed not too much to expect ๐Ÿค” Hulls are relatively cheap, good engines are bloody expensive but looked after properly will ๐Ÿค” last many years The only thing you canโ€™t but is time itself so ๐Ÿ˜ƒ pictures will follow of shiny things that make me smile ๐Ÿ˜Š
