Excellent vid Hookster.

Al, with the little wheel in Impact now, he could sit on your lap.

Nool, I left the big lens at home trying to avoid any derogatory remarks, but it looks like you noticed anyway.

Thanks to all, what a good weekend!! Thanks for all the positive comments about The Jet, finally I seem to have it going properly. Thanks for giving me a chance to run on my own, as it doesn't handle choppy water real well.

Frank, when we came out on the water to have a look, it didn't look like it was in the water apart from that little stirring stick down back.

Thanks for the feedback re the video, I have more to post on youtube which I will try and get onto today. It was a privilege to be given a ride in the beast!!! I might have had a bit of a Greg-lens thing on the go :lol: (don't tell Alan/Rhonda)

Glad you liked Bullitt Alan and Darren, I'm happy with it :P

Chivs if you can get Torea anywhere near as nice as Electric Girl you'll be laughing mate, beautiful boat Doug :D

Alan, Narelle laughed when she heard you'd saved the chalice - she said she'll just go and get another 4 for ten bucks at the Reject Shop, but they won't have the same sentimental value as that one - the damn thing's been everywhere!!!

Ahoy all!

Got some time to sort some photos! Will start with the two real stories or the trip!

1. Ray and Carol, well the Wooden Worry was going the best it ever has, unquote from Ray! Carol was so impressed she told Ray to put it on the trailer and be happy with that! Well the Worry broke down of course, after doing all the mechanical checks it was suggested he check if he had fuel. Well it appears Ray is not used to the Worry doing more than 15 to 20 minutes at a time and ran out of fuel :P
Refuelled and didn't miss a beat, even got to have a drive and its a lovely thing to drive, well done Ray and Carol!

Story two, Stuart the Fat Pigeon care of Fat Pigeon Racing learned a valuable lesson about mechanical checks! It also showed he has never used an electric beater in the kitchen before and learned the need to get the blades into the machine so they lock in!

Stuart (the cripple, the reason he looks odd behind the wheel, like Look at me Look at me) went for a thang backed off too hard and lost the prop, the reasons have been discussed, the answer is?

Having trouble loading photos, if they grab the second last one should be just about the time the prop decided it had had enough!
