Congratulations Bear, I am also a Yanmar fan. The raw water cooled 2GM15 I have in Storm Petrel still starts first time after 30 yrs of loyal service. Will we see Egret in the big blue again when you get the iron genoa in place? It would be good to have you at the next Pittwater get together.

Cheers,
Mark

Rod, I had a mental breakdown and thought about planting and outboard on Egret ll ?But sitting in the cockpit with a beer watching yachts around me with outboards made me come to my senses ! the smell of 2 stroke would always reminds me to mow the lawns ?

That smell of 2 stroke when running the outboard on Windchaser also reminds me of lawn mowing. But it only reminds me that someone somewhere would be mowing their lawn while they should be out on the water like me and sitting down having a beer.
