Yes, mine was marginally cheaper - option exists to go with a pre 65 5.5hp 2 pot Omc or the 6hp post 65. Both can be set up on remotes and are about the same weight as the Merc....
Fasten bra straps and remove dentures...

Nice :thumbsup: I'm leaving mine for a bit until the crew (grandchildren) grows big enough to use it, it's small enough to stand on the transom on the corner of the garage.

Its such a shame you two are on different islands (if not planets in Fergal's case :giggle: ) it would be so good to see these two boats on the water together. One day maybe . . .

Well done - lovely job as ever Fergal.
Mercs are like women, no 2 are exactly alike. That's what testing is about. In general it is safer to test motors and props than women!
