Is that because you don't own anything that's lasted that long?

Richard
That should not happen.
Please send it back and I am happy to get that sorted for you ASAP.

Certainly nothing made by icom!
But I think the restoration work we did on the Avon 8. a credit to us and I am confident that will last a long time. It was however a difficult and unrewarding process
My Scorpion is, I am sure, providing faultless service wherever the fkk it is!

now now, Sir Jon did say he would like to visit Drivers shortly, so if you see a Rolls Royce with an ICOM in the dash open the gate quick and remove caps, then have a chat about the fogged up screen on the M503. I am sure he will be sympathetic.

Time to start thinking up an Easter publicity campaign, we want that boat back again.

Good idea Pete.. How about we talk nicely to Nautibouy.. And see if Richard could make up a few 100 business sized cards, one side could have a piccy of the scorp, and the other could have the serial numbers of the hull and engine plus a phone number to call.. They could then be distributed far and wide across the UK..

Count me in.
