Unfortunately my tinny is going to need some TLC ...

Ouch! Just a lot of shit
Ouch! Just a lot of shit blowing around my area. Went to check on my boat in the pen and bloody nearly got blown in! Went for a quick look on the outside at Hillarys Boat Harbour and it's an absolute washing machine out there!

Home insurance bloke came
Home insurance bloke came around today and we managed to move the boat and drop the wall, lifted the cowling and NO damage at all underneath, only the smashed cowling.
Fortunately I have another cowling on an old motor that I bought some time back for spares, lucky as the tinny is not insured.
This motor is well over forty years old and still going strong, seems even a brick wall can't stop it !
