You know that rock in the middle of Morfa beach? The one we all know is there....! The one you should avoid at low tide.....?

Well, I didn't at around 25kts.

Off to Dickies next Saturday to get all the bits of the engine talking to each other again.

Steve at Porthcawl was really helpful.

Ho di hum

Guess so.....it puked oil and there's now a 4cm gap half way up the leg. Think the impact (I only clipped it) forced the leg out and up and the whole thing buckled at the bottom of the main casing, flipping off the cover.

Hoping Dec can work his magic!
