A better wheel

I thought I’d share this new way I’ve come up with for forecasting the weather. I know what you’re going to say, “there’re perfectly good options out there already for accurately forecasting the weather”, but my way is better, because it is, so there.
It’s simple, cheap, reliable, cheap, eco friendly, cheap, gluten free & cheap. The best bit is....it’s cheap.
I’m going to install it on the boat & if I actually ever get the boat in the water, I’ll do a report when I get back, if I get back.

It’s not a non existent problem - Dave bought a boat without a roof on it!

No Paul take it from a local. It’s cap and belt with the ‘Craig’ it never fails.
Saw your rib on Monday when we were in to pick up ours she’s looking good. Surprised as I thought you had moved.
