CJR Propulsion, WHich is near us I think it might be called quayside road, very near Towsure and Kemps Quay.

I think they do a 2 day turn around (don't ask me how I know)

Nothing in particular - just chipped and looking a little tired after so much use. - A bit like me really

Took the boat out today (first time in a few weeks) so just giving it a little TLC.

Nice to have a spare too !!!

Chow for Now

No they are OK. Steel developments are good also but CJR are local and they seem to know what they are doing

Hi Hump,

Tried CJR this morning as suggested but the guy who repairs is away for the week so left it with the guy from Aldershot - can't remember the name of his company -

Thanks again.

Paul

The guy in Aldershot is brilliant, couldn't work out which blade he had repaired when I got it back. Mind you finding the place was another story.

Hi pete,

My GPS didn't know the place.

Old fashioned way get to the area and ask.

A woman came out of a house 2 doors up from the mews and didn,t know where it was. Spent a long time looking for the place but eventually found him.

As you say a son of a bitch to find

Paul

I took my prop (Yam 80AETO) with one bent/cracked blade and sundry battle scars, to the Show last Saturday and handed it over to Steel Developments for repair. It arrived back yesterday by courier looking immaculate in shiny gloss black, total coast £47.00 incl. VAT and one-way courier charge.
Can't complain about that!
