Saving Old Seagulls

Did jast as you said.... Neighbours are happpy with me now! :lol: Water is spraying up from the pump housing, The pipe is a little deformed where it fits into the housing. The coffee was 200mm up the tube, nice and black down from the top. I'm happy. It's still pumping plenty of water and not gettin...

I will remove the exhaust tube and take the power head off the drive tube to have a good look in the exhaust port.
If I can't see any thing there I will take the head off.

Took her out for a run today. It was wet, cold and windy but we can't let a little bad weather stop the testing. :roll: All seemed to work well. The lifting bracket lifted the outboard nicely (and lowered it) the steering turned to port when we turned to the port (unlike the first test :oops: ) Here...

What prop after you after (shape) http://www.saving-old-seagulls.co.uk/phpbb3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5592&hilit=props Have a look in the thread above is it the 5 blade hydro fan? 4th prop down in the list. When you say customise it what are you planning on doing to it? Or use it as a pattern to...

Got a bit of paint on it now! http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b302/malenudge/Chris/Seagull/IMG_0366.jpg If you didn't know you would not think the stern had been cut out at all. Steering is back in, this time I hope it is set up the correct. The remote throttle is also set up. http://i22.photobuck...

both of them can turn it over but not fast enough to start it.

for me the two ceeeeement mixers would wash garments a lot better

Now where is the fun in that.

That Seagull would have started first pull if it had a spark plug!
The plug was removed for cinematic purposes (that gull has so much compression the kids couldn't pull it over)

spin dry in the cement mixer

Now that's not a bad idea. Just change the gear ratio around and it would be flying.
OR.... Add a bit of petrol and a match to the clothes in the mixer (leaving it going slow) and it would be a hot tumble drier

Kids doing the washing!!

Welcome

Is it broken or a dribble of oil?

What about the cam on the flywheel? piston and spark need to be in the right place at the right time!!

Looks a bit like pete the Pirate's boat!

Here is a youtube link with his boat in it.

Very nice, looks like it is fresh out of the box!

maybe just spray lacquer it with mat finish?

Got the transom back in! I used 6mm marine ply for the skin and laminated another 6mm for the thrust clamping block to the outside. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b302/malenudge/Chris/Seagull/IMG_0215.jpg I pre drilled and fill the mounting holes oversize so they can be drilled to the correct siz...
