Why would you want to put new twins on that old banger?

Will go past ya at 1/4 throttle,sitting down,beer in hand in metre chop.

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D



What can you do?

Whack him on the back of the head, get a firm grip on
his right hand earlobe, take him down to the nearest
boatyard, and show him what his excess "free money"
will buy these days....

He might even get a decent trade-in on the swiftie.

the old swifties were very flat in the bottom, hardly call it a v.
spend money else where or just up date with a bit later single engine.
cheers
