Disaster

Post by RAY SWANN »

Hello.
I was sitting up in bed the other night, pouring ajax into the plug hole of my 40+ for its annual de-coke.
Next thing a passing truck carrying overweight elephants to the local fitness farm caused the house to vibrate.
The result was that the seagull century I had stored in the loft came through the ceiling,hitting the sleeping wife on the head.
This caused terrible damage, as it has broken one of the aluminium leg extensions on the transom bracket.
This piece is on the right hand side viewed from the tiller,it is bolted to the bronze bracket and allows the thrust block
to be moved by a series of holes to adjust the angle of engine on transom.
On a more positive side I can now use the hole in ceiling when in bed flying my radio control helicopter,as I can now
fly up through the hole and around the loft, much better.
So seriously has anyone got a spare aluminium thrust block adjuster?
If so please let me know.
Thanks
RAY

do not try these things at home all of the above stunts where carried out by professionals.
no animals where hurt during the above proceedings
AJAX is a copy right held by beechams plc.
