I had similar on an old Mercury Blue band.
Ran great for a few hours and then it would not start.
Next day, it would start easy.
I fixed and checked a load of stuff but in the end my feeling was the coils ( or component parts ) were breaking down and heat build up was causing my grief !

Very good Oli.
I bet there was plenty of banter amongst the entertainment of catching fish.
Sounds like a cracking trip .
I'm waiting for the pictures.

I thought I was going " soft in the head "
I may get some tabs for the Tiddler !
I'm also looking into fitting a keel guard. Like wot they do on Ribs. Anyone had experience of them ?
Good uns Bad uns etc ?

Maybe we should ban sea fishing worldwide for 5 years with VERY strong penalties.
No nets No rod and line - - - - nothing !
Probably sounds harsh or daft, but if something is not done very quickly - - - we'll have f**ked it up for ever ! !
It'd probably be easier for me as I never catch anything anyway.
