    Tested my boat motor...

    Tested the motor I have for my S.I.B today. It's a 1973 Johnson Sea Horse 4Hp. It started after just some minor persuation, and purred like a kitten, just like my wife , who is also a 1973 model :-)

    Going fising as soon as the I get a calm day out there. I only have a 8,5 foot soft inflatable boat, but it's got a hard deck so okay for fishing :-)

    Here is a pic of the motor:

    Hoping for halibut, or wolf fish, but more likely that I get cod, haddock, coalfish, cusk or ling. :-)

    All good dinner, which will be the end goal anyway, as S.W.M.B.O has ordered more fish and less meat on the menu...(I am gouing to have to do something about those ladies magazines she reads)
