Right you are Neil,
When dealing with boats it's not just the engine they have to keep on top of. It's a whole new mind-set to look after a boat. We have to adapt a manner of thinking of what is likely to go wrong, what will wear, what's the life-span of parts and gear, AND how do I fix it and keep it up. Those that don't do that normally don't stay with it for very long.
