After towing home a brand new boat that blew up its black box 10 hours of running ( Johnson) , and being towed home in a mates boat second trip in after he brought it got it serviced etc and it blew its power coil ( mercury), fished and motored through French pass , Tory Chanel , Cape Jackson mate I'll take all the the good luck I can get.

Remeber this lost soul ...lost steering , dropped anchor , snapped anchor off! Boat that could have saved her had to drop clients off ..so they agreed to drop the clients off and come back.

I went to sea on the coalsa secundo(spelling) which was basicly coalsa the second.
the first one had caught fire 2 or 3 times and sank...the one I went on had already caught fire twice and us 3 kiwis refused to take her to sea untill the hatches could be dogged shut!
