Attention Philby

[jmaw]

Philby, as a fellow Mancunian now living in Cornwall I was interested in reading about the problems you are/were having with your evinrude 70.....and needing a powerpack,I have just seen theis advert on www.ADTRADER.CO.UK and was wondering if there was any chance that the powerpack advertised for sale shared the same part no. as yours.....cheap enough to buy for a spare even if you have ordered one...wish I could have got one at that price when I needed one.(£160.00 for Honda 15 hp).Where do you use your boat? Windemere? Jim Maw....<br /> JOHNSON/OMC V4 85, 140Hp O/B spares, 13x19 prop, £20. Powerpack (new), £25. Water pump, £20. Cylinder head, £25. Coil, £10. Pair 5/16 carbs, £20.

Re: Attention Philby

Jim Maw<br /><br />Thanks for that. Great price, wrong one !<br /><br />I've just come back from Windermere. Unfortunately it was my wedding aniversary, so the boat was banned. There are going to be a lot of cheap boats for sale when the speed restriction comes in.<br /><br />Stayed at the Millar Howe. Fantastic hotel.<br /><br />No, we have a house at Rhosneigr, Anglesey, so mailnly use the boat there. Took it to Brittany for the summer ( on the trailer of course )<br /><br />Sad thing is( and I'll say this quietly ) I have been all over the world and never set foot in Cornwall to my knowledge. Any reccomendations wpuld be gratefully recieved.<br /><br />Where abouts in Manchester ?
