BSS Examiner: Alan Winter Ely (07836541558). He's very thorough though so be prepared! He did my first examination on Vianna and every time he opened his mouth I imagined £10 notes flying out and into the sky.
ReplyDeleteStill, it was a death trap!
Whoever thought that having the gas container resting on the exhaust (which was just plastic) was a good idea had an interesting approach to safety.
Alan Winter is a fair, thorough and honest boat safety examiner!
DeleteHighly recommended!
Another thumbs-up for Midsummer Energy after a recent installation on Southern Comfort: a very neat and expert job, and no more worry about flat batt or running the engine un-necessarily.
