Yamaha 421STI power ateering belt

Today we had a beautiful day recreating the voyage of George Bass and Mathew Flinders when they charted the George's River and landed at what is now known as Bass Hill.

We stopped at the waterfront restaurants nearby at Georges Hall and had way too much food.

Not bad for a mid winter day. The seven of us had a great day.

We did manage to melt the power steering belt though so if anyone knows the part number so I can get a new one, it would be most appreciated.

Thanks Alan. The belt was loose and I thought I was tightening it but what I did was stop the idler pulley from turning. Took about a minute to melt the belt.
