Thanks for all the replies, I think I have made up my mind and will be going for a Mariner 115 LS mounted on a stainless pod as I’ve made in the splash well on the boat for that was my original plan. My enquiries have been somewhat fruitless with some suppliers saying late summer for a delivery, I think the days of popping to the shop and buying anything are disappearing fast but think I will use Bursledon outboards for the purchase. The technology in a new engine is what has swayed my decision along with the cost of a 10-15 year old (unknown) engine for just over half the cost didn’t seem great value for money either. Updates to follow as they happen.

I was completely unsure what I was going to need to replace my deck so I went mad .... Im a firm believer of "Id rather be looking at it than for it" 😁 I have about 12/15 met of 600g chop strand glass (probably closer to 15 met) cost me £2.50 per met and about the same of 400g chop strand glass (cost me £2.25 per met.) I also have 25 kg of polyester resin and hardener in 5kg containers (cost me £27.72 per 5kg). Cost to me of this was about £195. Anyone looking to do some major glassing could make me a reasonable offer over £100 and save themselves a bob or two.

Ahhhh I do love a happy ending. 👍

Sold.

It's called CAD, very handy! R
