    Bloody stupid
    GP had excellent manners with her original rudder
    Jeez, a portakabin and a barn door ... what next?
    Am assuming the L3 series Gardner is still in her
    Much like yourself Jay, convert rather than destroy but I can only assume this guy has been given advice from one of the numpties who frequent all our quaysides .... and he has took it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    she was a nice enough wee boaty when she was in Tighnabruaich
    Guys,

    Maybee he doesn't know where the throttle is or hasn't realised that more throttle means more stearage.  You can turn these boats in their own length if you use the throttle so why the extension?

    She was very easy to spin in her own length as most of them were ... just cranking the Gardner box aheid an astern and flicking the wheel as necessary
    Whoever onws GP now needs his head looking at
    think maybe he reversed into a sunken trawl door and kept hiz mooth shut
