I just want to put up a quick post to thank Colin and Sandra crew of ss Dreamweaver.
This morning i put my latest project in the water for a bit of a shakedown.the boat performed well until i reached michelmas island when it suddenly lost power then stopped,removing the cowling and discovering lots of smoke and melted wires,one coil completely destroyed led me to the conclusion that i was having a minor cooling problem :-)

I called Colin who galantly came to the rescue and towed us back to shore which was no mean feat given the size and weight of my boat.
once close to the jetty colin expertly managed to turn his boat full circle pointing me directly at the jetty ready for a nice soft landing.
on removing the head i found one piston had melted down completely :-(
the day was not a complete loss tho as whils we where waiting we caught a nice blackarse and a buffy

so a big thanks to Colin and Sandra for saving the day.
Im sure Colin will post the photos he so enjoyed taking whilsy he was towing us home

cheers
