Did you tell the police?
I'm guessing it might have been the same people that tried to steal the engines from the sailing club last week. Didn't manage to take anything, but cut all the cables :-(

Suzuki DT25: Flush muffs?
We don't get any water pumping when trying to use flush muffs. Is it worth getting a better set that seal around the intakes better, or is it something that just doesn't work very well?
