Hello

Bought a used 5 metre Humber with 60hp 2-stroke Mariner last year for use in Arran. Back in the water over Easter if it ever stops snowing...

Hi
That combination should work well. What model and age is the boat/engine? Good luck with your boating AND the weather this year. I have heard that summer will be on a Thursday in September!

Do you know if that is the morning or afternoon?

Good question. I actually don't know the model. I need to get the number off the plate and find out. I think the boat was built 2001 and the engine is a similar vintage. Few problems last year with warm starting but had it fully serviced over the winter so fingers crossed - apparently the thermostat was leaking.

Funny you should mention the weather - shitty summer though it was, I was on the water every day for our fortnights holidays.

Ok, hoping someone can tell me which model of Humber this is....if I've managed to attach the photos OK. There's a plate on the transom which has a number which is tricky to read but starts G5 HUM and finishes 10 01.
