Argh - A Big Hole in the Hull!

After much discussion we finally decided to install a bowthruster. Some may say this reflects an inability to reverse our long keeler in a straight line and a desire to avoid learning by bumping into an expensive gin palace. They would be correct!

Trevor and his team at Bluewater Marine gave us a good quote for installing our SidePower thruster once we had purchased in the UK and shipped it out to Portugal. We were really impressed with their attitiude and the quality of work. All in all a good setup and not surprisingly we put further work their way too.

I would show you a picture of the finished outside but when we left to come back to the UK they hadn't fitted the paddles - so I can't.
