Hi Martin, i do not if you know this, but it was considered safe practice to hove too overnight when there was no moon. As ships then had no radar, they relied on moon light nights to see the waves breaking white in the moonlight and that night it was a black moonless night. So yes if Smith had survived he would undoubtedly had gone to prison for a long time, for hazard his vessel causing loss of and causing the deaths of his crew and passengers.

Thanks Crew I am going to build my own A frames and fit bronze bushings in them , bearings get clogged in time and bronze can can replaced due to wear if any , as Geoff said they are carriers to stop shaft whip and not so much load bearing to everyone whom contributed many thanks tassie48

Thanks for all the replies the glow fuel did the trick thanks  , i would normally strip it down as Bunkerbarge recommended but its a martin howes and baylis pb2 engine and honestly think it would be a bridge too far for me , so thanks again for all the information ,regards Allan

If you're not going to strip it, initially do NOT run it, but give it ample of any kind of lubricating and cleaning liquid while "slowly" turning over, and that way rinse out the engine to get rid of any corrosion particles. Glow fuel would be a good medium for that.

The long awaited 1/72nd Westland Wasp from LS Models has arrived. Should make a great addition for the 1/72 scale cold war era warships.
