A good vid Phil showing of your skills!! I especially like the way sneaky way you move ballast forward just before your 'squeaky bum' moment.
Anyway what was the problem with the engines.
cheers

Haha. Thank you,,, the fuel line comes from the middle of the fuel tank then down the side. The guy on the front starboard side has his foot perfectly on it and over the corner of the tank so it starved the engine of fuel..... I'm sure we have all had a plonker on board. Haha. 😝

I love being up Oban its one of my favourite places to go far enough away from the rat race but not hours of driving were you heading out to go diving or was that coming back cause the weather looks rather fruity
