Airguide Instruments
I have Installed three instruments onto the dashboard , from left to right we have an Airguide sea speed speedometer that is powered by an integral pitot in my mercury engine , then I have a large Airguide fuel gauge and an Airguide sea speed Tachometer . I have an Airguide compass to install aswell but as yet I am undecided as where I should fit it .

Stainless steel propeller
Picked up a bargain at the local car boot last week ! I bought a trophy plus 4 blade 19 pitch stainless steel propeller to replace my tired aluminium 3 blade prop.
The first task was to get the old aluminium propeller off of the spline . I had an old flywheel puller that I used on motorbike engines but the arms were too short so I drilled some holes in the prop and then fitted the puller.
With the old prop removed I was able to inspect the spline which turned out to be in very good condition.
