) on a serious note though, this poor little boat has sat under my carport for the last 3 years and not much if not hardly any work has been done due to be continuously let down by promising mechanics/marine engineers . plus I had devastating news yesterday from the family of my faithful engineer who has made so many copies of original parts for it has sadly passed on... gutted . So here is the next question,.. is there anybody on here or anybody knows someone who I can have/hire/employ etc.. to finish off this magnificent classic . I have all the bits, literally , vacuum tank for clutch, even the solenoid to activate the diaphragm! dashboard re wired and ready to be connected up and fitted the only exception is the windscreen, which I have a local firm to make one off the template I made from another mates Aquila . The project is more or less 90% finished to a reasonably high standard, but the worry I have is if it misses another season or no more progress is made, then I'm going to loose interest in her, which will be tragic, 
so please please 
anyone who got any positive suggestions either post it on here or P.M. me .. I'm willing to tow her ANYWHERE in the U.K. to be finished and prepared to pay the going rate (Without getting ripped off... naturally 
) Thanks to everyone for taking the time to read this .. I only wish my job would allow me the hours to complete this time consuming project that has literally started from a wreck ... and I mean a wreck 
..( Rapier if you read this you will know what I mean when I say a wreck 
) If any one needs some pics to see how near to completion she is, then let me know .Cheers all

, it's not the wiring thats an issue really, as the dash board has all been wired up with a special loom that was put together from scratch, and the dash is more or less ready to be fitted into place. Its the other bits and bobs 
how quirky that would be if I can get hold of him and talk him in to doing mine as a weekend hobble 
and talk about it
