update on progress
tantrums aside, the engines are now being mounted and shoud be in a position to test fire up on friday/monday (waiting on a couple of gaskets) the long awaited drives have arrived
complete with new "knuckles" and wing plates etc etc.
For those that want to check the specs you will find them at http://www.konradmarine.com/index.cfm?optionid=8139
The units are supplied as PRSIII -- basically a mod on the 540 performance, adapters supplied etc----that is why the main box has 540 written on it.
All hoses for trim tabs to pumps and stern drive rams to pumps aquired- Pirtek do some neat plastic coated "goodrige" stuff, engine oil coolers repaired, gearbox oil coolers mounted and new hoses ready.
Stainless fixing bolts aquired to nail trim tabs to the hull, trim tab hydraulics overhauled, all engine trim and trim tab pumps taken for testing and back for install, steering rams tested and re hosed, ready for install.
Almost forgot --fairy dust sticker attached by others some time sunday? --would you like it if i mess with your boat? that is out of order, regardless of what you think of the owner, would you like that attached to yours?
Getting close
Regards
Budweiser

Get over yourself, it's only a sticker, a bit of fairy dust might be just what you need

ang on, ang on........ Let’s get some perspective on this.
If someone sabotaged or vandalised either of my boats, stole anything or was just generally being over nosey without me being there (which usually results in the cover not getting put back on properly etc).......... then I’d want to assassinate the W4nker.
But
If I came to my boat one day (especially at a communal yard that has the level of banter & tomfoolery that Drivers enjoys between certain forum members) and found a little sticker saying “chaos is homo” or “chaos sucks cock” or “powered by KY jelly” it wouldn’t worry me in the slightest.
This thread has had quite enough bollix spoken on it without us all adding to it when a harmless practical joke has been played.

You shouldn't have done it then, should you!
That fairy dust could jeopardise the whole project! I bet they won't make Cowes now! AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!

You are all missing the point... Jon would you like it if somone put a sticker on your boat? I dont think so, its adding salt to the wound, Martin and John were good members of this site and have helped many of the members here so let not Knock them for what they are trying to do in very difficult times... Like Martin or not (I dont actually think he cares if you do or dont) but dont continually have a tug at them - they are not looking at the posts... but I am and think that if you actually knew Martin then your opinion would be different

Dont be silly Jon, it wasn't chaos, by the time he'd have got the stickers made the boat would be long gone.

i dunno what your on about, Jon's got loads of stickers down the side of his boat and they're all faded! could do with a bit of polishing.
and if anyone thinks about putting a sticker on warlord there will be trouble, could ruin the whole project.

No, but then I didn't put the sticker on the Planatec did I, so I'm not sure why you're pointing that comment at me.
I actually agree with Chaos though (which is a first), a simple sticker in jest hasn't done any harm. I wouldn't lose any sleep if it went on my boat. as long as no damage was done.
Any wounds that the fairydust sticker has 'added salt to' were self inflicted. No sympathy from me I'm affaid.

I'm sure I remember someone putting a sticker "I love gay porn" on the back of JF's car. And "Mr Bling" on TD's truck.

Yes, and I'd like to add that my life has never been the same since. I may seek compensation for the damage to my car and mental distress caused by the accusation.
That car would have gone onto great things, but the sticker ruined everything!

Shall we get the quote right rather than what you would like to think it said!
Look the sticker.. yes I can see the funny side of it but when Martin is having so much trouble with the boat he didnt... So Silly joke to some people can be offensive to others. Lets just hope that the "Fairy Dust" works its Magic
So shall we all move on now...
