Looking good Colin & Bobi. Have you thought of a name yet? Jim

Probably no use, But I had the same thing with an old Marina 40. The kill button was missing when I bought it, so I wired in a kill switch by the helm. The vibrations of the engine had worn the insulation on the lead and was shorting out. It did not affect it too much at speed because the contact was being made and broken. When in neutral, the engine sits in a different position and does not make the connection. When in gear, the engine casing moves and sits in the damaged insulation. I hope this makes sense. If you have a remote kill cord, check the lead. Jim

If only Dave ! ! ! ! One day I'll get out. Looks like the weather's gonna be kind to you. Good luck mate. Jim

Sounds reasonable enough. Shouldn't be too big a job to clean the carb out. Try the net for instructions. Jim

Crikey Jim put your pants back on!! Thanks for those kind words Rob.

I once mis-read the notice and paid the wrong fee. They gave me a ticket. They didn't make a proffit though. I wrote and argued it a few times. It was a genuine mistake and I had paid although it was the wrong amount. Did you explain you were new to the area and did not realise you were breaking any rules? Jim

Jacquie's just fell over Laughing.

Well done Lads. As always, a jolly good read. If ever you wanted a change in career Mark. You could do this for a living. Telling interesting fishing / kayaking stories. The wages may be crap but who cares. Jim

Happy Birthday Lads. Jim

Welcome to the Club Dave. You're joining the right club for a good laugh whilst sharing and learning at the same time. Jim

You're right ! I need help ! It was worth asking the question. Perhaps I should have said Baguette holders !

Me too. Yeah - Me too ! We design and make them to suit Warrior 150 - 165 etc. http://www.boatsandoutboards.co.uk/view/F218425 and were asked if they fit a Predator 165. Simples ! Jim

Hi All, Does anyone have or know of someone who has a Predator 165 ? ( In Poole / B_Mouth area ) We have been asked if our Rod Tubes will fit. We would like to try some to see. Thanks. Jim

Very sorry. I must withdraw my offer of help at the Boat Jumble and Will probably not be able to make the AGM due to family stuff. Jim

Happy Birthday Craig. Jim

Happy Birthday Mike. Jim
