WARNING!

If you feel that you cannot cope with the sheer awesomeness of these tubes then please look away now...

After Chris sent through some sample photos of a red or a grey stripe today, I had a chat with our boat donor and we have come to a decision that we will go for the grey
Just felt that it was more in keeping with the build and that it helped to break up the all black tubes and it looks from the photos that the straps are also grey so it all ties in quite nicely
I have posted the pics below to keep you lot up to date

Well lads I've got it back. It's bloody lovely. Chris is a true gent. He's even bunged in a new pump. If anyone's got any of that flimsy polythene they use to cover cars I could do with some to cover this up
