Smile Just about ready for the summer.

Fired up the Lady Rita's outboard on Sunday. Drop of fresh petrol & she started up first flick of the key. Ticking over very smoothly, but I have one small concern. The cooling water outlet (Pee pipe) was pumping out water strongly for about a minute or so, then it reduced to a trickle. It was a cold frosty morning & I suspect it may have just been a bit of ice blocking the outlet. Anyone else got any thoughts? Other than that, i've got the boat pretty much kitted out & ready to go. Just need some decent weather...

Re: Just about ready for the summer.

Lee do you agree with this any fish caught by Ian on the Lady Rita shouldn't be allowed to enter to species hunt, agree, yes good. actully we should ban all Ians Fish, im certain he pays them to be hooked.

Re: Just about ready for the summer.

As mentioned Ian, check out your impeller, and carry one as a spare. Dont know how many hours your motor has done but its always worth changing your impeller then you can be sure you are changing at recommended intervals.
Cheers
Doug
