needed as the amount of rain we are getting at the moment I am wearing a Life Jacket over the top of my main jacket, would be nice to have a raft in the case of emergency....

We had over 10 inches of rain in the last couple of days, I was thinking inflatable pontoons on the 1500 along with a PTO to run a prop.

We just had some bad stuff this afternoon, we got floods everywhere, and we live half way up a mountain.
Good thing is for us it goes as quick as it comes, its the poor guys at the bottom of the mountain that get the worst bit....

Now I know why you euros like those damned 1800's. The frames won't rust and you can't ride them enough to have them crack.

Looks like it would have been a good year to put in that rainfall catchment system. You would have had Wing washing water for ever.
