Hi Paul Thanks for the info, I also noticed in the Note the diagram that there is a wording problem. Quote [No charge current from the alternator will get to battery 2 if the switch is moved to Battery 2 only. ] This is incorrect because if you select Batt 2 the outboard starts from this battery so will charge this battery so long as the selector switch is on Batt 2 position. I will amend the words acordingly. Coddy

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Duncan Have a great day matey Coddy

Hi Jack Suggest you try this site Virtual Earth Coddy

If you now have a 130hp won't you be able to turn a larger prop now? Coddy

Interesting Jack as our house shows the conservitory that we have added last year. My daughters car is in the drive. Coddy

Hi Sam I would be interested, especially as I live just around the corner. Don't want to upset our other suppliers and sponsors however. Coddy

Me thinks someone is going to be checking for stress cracks for a while What a result Adam, bet she will fly, have you got trim tabs on her? Coddy

Why not try the stuff they use on wax coats or even tents? Coddy

The Pasta Diet and Your Health ITALIAN PASTA DIET -- IT REALLY WORKS !! 1.. You walka pasta da bakery. 2.. You walka pasta da candy store. 3.. You walka pasta da Ice Cream shop. 4... You walka pasta da table and fridge. You will lose weight! AND...... CONCERNED ABOUT TOO MANY CARBS IN YOUR DIET? For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies. 1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans. 2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans. 3. The Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans. 4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans. 5. The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans. CONCLUSION Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you

THEY WALK AMONG US------------------------------------------------------------ I walked into a Mickey D's with a buy-one-get-one-free coupon for a sandwich. I handed it to the girl and she looked over at a little chalkboard that said "buy one-get one free". "They're already buy-one- get-one-free", she said, "so I guess they're both free" She handed me my free sandwiches and I walked out the door. They Walk Among Us and Many Work Retail. =================== One day I was walking down the beach with some friends when one of them shouted, "Look at that dead bird!" Someone looked up at the sky and said, "Where?" They Walk Among Us! =================== = While looking at a house, my brother asked the real estate agent which direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking him up every morning. She asked, "Does the sun rise in the north?" When my brother explained that the sun rises in the east, and has for sometime, she shook her head and said, "Oh I don't keep up with that stuff." They Walk Among Us!! =================== = I used to work in technical support for a 24/7 call center. One day I got a call from an individual who asked what hours the call center was open. I told him, "The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week." He responded, "Is that Eastern or Pacific time?" Wanting to end the call quickly, I said, "Uh, Pacific." They Walk Among Us! =================== = My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car designed to cut through a seat belt if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk. They Walk Among Us! =================== = My friends and I were on a beer run and noticed that the cases were discounted 10%. Since it was a big party, we bought 2 cases. The cashier multiplied 2 times 10% and gave us a 20% discount. They Walk Among Us! =================== = I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area, so I went to the lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up. She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained professional and I was in good hands. "Now," she asked me, has your plane arrived yet?" They Walk Among Us! =================== = While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before responding. "Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry enough to eat 6 pieces." Yep, They Walk Among Us! =================== = They Walk Among Us, AND they Reproduce, and Worst of All They VOTE!

Thanks Charlie I will pop around soon. I almost for got I need to pick up a telephone number from you as well. Coddy

Nice one Paul. I was sitting in a pub with a drink and a nice meal Coddy

Well done Jack, 2007 is going to be your year for fish I think. Coddy

Thought it might be worth checking for all our "younger" members who tow a boat! -------------------------------------------------- The law states: You must hold a full driving licence to tow anything. Most drivers who passed their test before 1 January 1997 have licence categories allowing them to drive vehicle and trailer combinations weighing up to 8.25 tonnes. With effect from 1 January 1997 the second EC Directive on Driving Licences (91/439/EEC) came into effect, affecting new drivers passing their test after that date and HGV drivers who obtained their licence after 31 December 1991. The net result is that new drivers will only be allowed to drive and tow the following combinations: Vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes (category with a 750kg trailer (4.25 tonnes total MAM). Category B vehicles with larger trailers i.e. > 750kg, provided that the combined MAM does not exceed 3.5 tonnes and the gross MAM of the trailer does not exceed the unladen weight of the towing vehicle. To be able to tow combinations outside this ruling requires the passing of an additional test. New HGV drivers and those who have passed their HGV tests since 1 January 1992 will be restricted to towing trailers up to 750kg until they pass an additional test. Detail of the Regulation The Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) (Amendment) Regulations 1990 SI 1990 No 842 classifies vehicles according to either: "Maximum authorised mass" (permitted maximum weight). Vehicles over 3,500kg MAM are classified as LARGE GOODS VEHICLES (LGV's)** **Requires Additional qualifications for people to drive LGV's & PCV's -------------------------------------------------- The reason for this posting is that my son thought he could tow but whan we checked it was a no no! It is also worth checking your licence if you have had need to get it updated or any reason. Seems that the licence authority often forget to add all the entitlements to a renewal or amendments. Keep a copy of the old licence and any pass certificates you might have, YOU have to prove you were entitled to drive before the re-issue. Many have had to take a re-test at thier own costs! Coddy

Thanks Adam thats great. I can get s/s nuts and bolts from work so that's easy. Coddy

How bigger piece of ply and how thick do you need? Also do you put the bolt heads inside the boat or on the outside on the aux bracket? I need to fit mine during this rough spell. Coddy

Found this site for nipples http://www.namrick.co.uk/browse.asp?PCID=20 Seem cheap enough Coddy

Why not go for the Hustler type with the replaceable centre. You know you will ding that prop in Christchurch so having an instant replaceable prop is the cheapest and easiest way to go. Have a look here Adam Outboard Props Coddy

A brand new store has just opened in London that sells Husbands. When women go to choose a husband, they have to follow the instructions at the entrance:- "You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are 6 floors and the value of the products increase as you ascend the flights. You may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you CANNOT go back down except to exit the building So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the 1st floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 - These men have jobs The 2nd floor sign reads: Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids. The 3rd floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids and are extremely good looking. "Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going. She goes to the 4th floor and the sign reads: Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous and Help with Housework. "Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!" Still, she goes to the 5th floor and sign reads: Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, help with Housework and are caring sensitive lovers. She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the 6th floor and the sign reads: Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012,065 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store. To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opens a New Wives store just across the street. The 1st floor has wives that love sex. The 2nd floor has wives that love sex and have money. The 3rd - 6th floors have never been visited. I'll get my coat Coddy

Mike Recently purchased a new one from Force Four in Poole Came complete with mount and a long lead for about

If you like a comparison here are my records for my Marina 60hp 4-stroke (carb model) Poole (RNLI college) to Freshwater bay and back both trips Trip 1 Total miles 51.5 Fuel used 29.6 ltrs Engine ran for 4hrs in total Ave 0.57 ltrs/mile Trip 2 Total miles 49.6 Fuel used 28.9 ltrs Engine ran for 5.1 hrs in total (did leave ign on in error for a while) Ave 0.81 ltrs/mile Can't recall if it was with or against tide but was travelling about 20+kts each time. Sea state must have been fairly good. Coddy

Nice one Adam Be interested on how she performs compared to BW. Yes selling and buying houses are even more stressful. As you may recall, we had to rent before we could find the right house and even that was a compromise. Good hunting Coddy (with envy)

Would agree with the kidney harness! Might be worth reading this Catch a Common Skate by THE EXPERT Davy Holt. Coddy

Hi Gary Could you not get an angled grease nipple to replace the one on the leg? Don't know this engine and layout so I might be talking c**p. Coddy

This is true but I don't have a jewish name for nothing! I will send you a spread sheet Mike Coddy
