It's on but not rigged, Daniel is down in a couple of weeks to do the wiring, I will offer the console on before that to make sure the control cables and hydro hoses fit properly

Excellent idea, I was going to suggest it at the weekend but, in all the excitement, forgot.
Couldn't have got where we are without your cunning plans.

Only some more great news
I've been in touch with OCA covers this week & their man James has very kindly offered a splash cover to go on the engine
This will protect Biffs handiwork and ensure the engine feels all cosy and even more loved !
Outboard Covers & Accessories
https://www.facebook.com/OutboardCovers?fref=ts
Several of us use these on our boats and I for one cant recommend them enough.
Now what to ask OCA to do - some chatting to our Ninja project leader on this and maybe ;
Black - with a grey top section ( to match the tubes )
Please do have a look at the website as it allows you to see the colour options and their FB page shows some of the clients they have - you may even see RIBnetters boat on there !
Any suggestions ?
Pete
(PS - Whisper is planning some great stuff )

I've got one of their full covers that goes on the OB during the winter to stop the boat cover rubbing. Perfect fit and James was a pleasure to deal with

Interesting comparison from last October to this January. Really wish I'd been well enough to help.
Really looking forward to seeing it finished
