Retirement with No Problem

Moored Ely, River Gt Ouse

Well they fitted the gearbox this afternoon.. here it is just before it went
in..

But now it has to come out again as there is a problem with it. The lever has
to travel an awful long way forward before it will turn the shaft if you see
what I mean.. it’s not the cable to the thottle lever, they tested that out
by doing it manually on the side of the box. It is almost like it has no oil
pressure.

It would be fine if we were prepared to go backwards for the rest of our life!

Still fighting with my blogger writing software Blogjet it is.. It won’t connect
and publish at the moment.. I had this problem once before, I think it might
be to do with my t-mobile connection. It is actually very poor here in Ely connection
wise.

More on the gearbox later..
