<edit> If you can't see where/why he's lying you shouldn't be on this forum!

I love the steering cable .I think he meant you can tow at 25 knot with 4 adults in the car.

he has a photo of it floating...

me thinks he will not be showing the GPS log reading 25knots

and the wheel bearings fill one with confidence

And this one was when we tried to claim £2000 on our insurance"

Come off it - I bet it WAS worth £2,000 - when he bought it many moons ago with a new engine.

I reckon it will easily do 25kts - on a river in full flood.

That thing was never £2K, it's late 60's early 70's, you could buy a small house for £2k then. The guy has sent hours meticulously painting it, shocking.

It's very flat bottomed. I bet it would go a lot quicker than you'd imagine. remember you're judging it against heavier, and generally deep 'V' boats. mebbe not 25 kts, but i reckon 20 wouldn't be unrealistic.

Yeah it would- I used to have one.

With a 50 on it and 2 people it'd make 25mph on gps. They aint light either.
