If it's the hole around the radio I agree the Fusion insert works very well, that was this afternoon's task. Swapped out old car cassette player for RA60. Insert made it easy and tidy.

or installing the windex you forgot to install !

Just look on Trademe at airfilters, $49 to $79 for what looks to be the same item. Saildrive anodes $50 to $82, split mode $182. Again look similar.

A rope shackle works too.

Curious thought, what would happen if there was a submarine under you?

Google turned up this is response to a search for activity at Rotomahana YACHTS CAPSIZE MANY IN TROUBLE RESCUES OF "CREWS SAILS AND MASTS LOST The chief storm damage in Auckland occurred on the harbour on Saturday afternoon; Yachts competing in the Devonport Yacht Club's annual regatta felt the full force of a strong northeasterly wind and, although all events ; were started, at least 30 of the competitors failed to finish. Of that number, almost 20 capsized and others blew out their sails or carried away masts. Three private motor-boats, including the Rotomahana, owned by Mr. H. Dud

Data from the BOP Regional Council wave bouy off Pukehina Beach for April 2021. Max wave height a little over 4m on the 22nd. Better data capture at Bowentown (similar max height);

The weather station on White Island (near the west summit) is very sensitive to topographic affects. It often gives 'unusual' data.

Samasaan at home on Lake Rotoiti.

Similar on the lakes....wave makers are very popular

Motor size is dictated by the Part V safety regulations for trailers yachts: "Motor rating shall be a minimum of 0.6 kW per metre overall length (approximately equivalent to 0.25 hp per foot of overall length)"

After 30 yrs in trailer yachts, the most important consideration is the prop on the bottom.. a suitable sail drive version. Next step would be long shaft for transom installations. I've always had 2-stroke, but the 4-strokes are making a impact.

WOW what a cool toy.

OMG, some of us would love to be able to get them off.

When you say anywhere in NZ, that implies a Trailer Yacht? .. is that correct

Is it oceanic or continental in origin ?
