it is recommended the prop should be in the water

Ya think?

As one of the 'partner' posters I felt a bit of clarification was in order. For some of us 'partner' is along the lines of 'Howdy partner'.

Mick (warder54) and I are buddies. For partners read co-owners.

Our respective pelvic affiliates think we're totally bonkers for doing what we do. 'You go ...

Hi.
I'm thinking of investing in a 12' PortaBote (as opposed to the 3m inflatable that I now have) and I'm curious. Do any of SOS members have such a beastie? It looks pretty good but I haven't seen one on the plastic so would appreciate any info. And yes, I've seen all the YouTube stuff.

Hi. I'm just new to Seagull ownership. The identifier worked pretty well (I think) I tried checking it manually but it was pretty confusing. I thought I had a 102 5hp but supposedly some models were 3.5 to 4 hp with a Villiers carb. Mine has an Amal carb. I know very little about it but the ...
