I bet you will be pleased to be able to get out on the water again Luke, especially now summer has finally arrived.

Make the most of the weather Luke, hope that engine keeps going well. Have not had a problem with the one I have yet and still runs as good as it did when new but I did run it in carefully and always used good 2 stroke oil in it and give it an annual service, always run it out of fuel before storing and wash it off
All the best Luke

Nice pictures mate. Don't mean to be too nosy, but on the second picture does the keel need inflating? Boat looks a bit flat!

I just presumed it should have more of a V shape at the front because of the inflated keel. A bit like this.

He's making a fair point Luke. My Honwave 3.5 alloy floor looks like it came from the same factory as your Suzmar and with the keel correctly inflated it raises the side tubes off the ground when sitting like yours in that picture, the inflated keel pushes the floor much lower than the tubes like the image of wxmrich's.
